Re: [Dx4win] Alert Trouble

2014-12-02 Thread William Osborne
Jim,

I think I have figured out why it is doing this, and only with some calls. I
got my 100+ on 30 meters for 9 band DXCC, and then I turned off 30 meters as
a band of interest for the station. I did this so I do not see the 30 meter
spots anymore. But, for the few countries where I had them conformed on CW
on 30 but not on CW anywhere else they come up as a 5 level spot instead of
the 4 level you expect from the country window mapping of worked and
confirmed.  I have confirmed this with two countries so far and I am still
testing but it seems to be true.  If I find another issue/feature
surrounding this behavior I will update you.

73 and thanks for what you do for DX4WIN,

Bill, K5ZQ

Please send me these files:

K5ZQ.dxl
DX4WIN.cfg

They should both be in your SAVE directory.

 Anyone have a fix or same problem?

Hi Bill,

There are several screens you have to go through to get this right
(right being a matter of opinion).

First, File | Awards.  The DXCC tab should be up.  Make sure that 30m
is checked in the Valid bands box.  If you do not care about a
separate 30m DXCC award, you can leave 30m unchecked in the Award
bands box.

Then in File | Preferences.  On the Station tab, make sure that 30m is
checked under Bands.  I am not 100% sure this is necessary, but I'm
trying to mirror how I have have 80 meters set up (a band for which I
have no antenna).

Finally, on the Packet3 tab, make sure that 30m is *unchecked*.

The effect of all this is that 30m spots will be still sent to the DX
spots window, but they will be grayed out.  Not gone completely, but
it should make them easier to not see.

NOTE that if something is spotted on 30 meters that is an all-time new
country, or an all-time new mode, you will NOT get any alerts about
this.
