I understand Rich's suggestion to be "striking CTRL-Enter in any QSO
Capture Window textbox logs the current information and clears all
fields for the next QSO".

Should the same behavior apply in the main logging window?

Ron, I'm not sure what you mean by "a special button". Please
elaborate.

By the way, Ron, is DXView 1.2.9 controlling your rotator properly
through ARSWIN?

Dave,

So far the new versions of DXKeeper and DXView are running
smoothly but we'll run them a little longer before giving a clean
bill of health :-) I like the new functionality. One thing, I
would like to see the Ctl+Enter logging function in the capture
window work with the cursor in any field instead of just the
callsign field. I often find my cursor in the Name or QTH fields
and my hands on the keyboard when I'm ready to log a contact.

Re: DxView

#165

That's certainly a defect, Mark, but you're the first to report it. What
version of DXView are you running? On which operating system are you
running?

Does this failure occur right away, or after you some action on your part?

  Subject: [dxlab] DXView 1.2.9 is available

  This release

      - supports rotators controlled by ARSWIN (see
  )

      - logs the contents of the Prefix texbox (presumably a callsign) in
  DXKeeper (if running) when you depress the CTRL key while clicking the Go
  button, or while striking the Enter key in the Prefix textbox.

  The second feature requires DXKeeper 1.2.5 or later. If DXKeeper's QSO
  Capture window is visible, then the contents of DXKeeper's Prefix textbox
  overwrite the contents of the QSO Capture window's Callsign textbox.
  Otherwise, they overwrite the contents of the Callsign textbox in
DXKeeper's
  main log window.

  If you've already installed DXView, you can upgrade by downloading
   - store it in your DXView
  folder and execute it; you can then run the extracted DXView129.exe . Your
  online help will be updated by this process.

PropView 1.0.6 is available

Dave, AA6YQ

#160

This is a defect, Joe -- PropView's Transmitter Latitude and Longitude are
not being properly initialized when DXView is installed. This has been
corrected in PropView version 1.0.6, which can be obtained by downloading
and running www.qsl.net/propview/PropView106Update.exe -- place the
extracted PropView106.exe in your PropView folder, and then run it.

Thanks!

Subject: propview

I have installed and operated PropView with DxView.  It is working quite
well for me but I have one quirk that may be caused by something in my
setup here but I thought I would bring it to your attention.
Initally, in
Propview parameters I insert my Transmitter latitude of 41.3 and
Longitude
of 87.28.  It appears correctly as 40 30' and 87 28'.... all works well
with the program.  Then if I quit the programs and reboot them, in the
propview parameters my Transmitter latitude comes up 0  30' and Latitude
0  28'.  on DxView chart, my location is correctly indicated at the south
end of Lake Michigan as it should but I find that to get correct
computations I must go back to the parameters of Propview and correct the
transmitter latitude and longitude .... after doing so all works well
again.  Then if I quit the program and reboot it, again the parameters of
the Transmitter location are missing the degrees numbers ...showing only
the minutes.  I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled with
the same
result.

Do you have any thoughts?  I am running Windows 98 on a custom AMD K6
350mhz with 128mb of RAM.

Thanks ... 73-Joe,K9BH

Re: Progress table DXKeeper 1.2.3

#157

Found something interesting about that. If you make a change to a
contact in the main QSO window then click save, it adds the info
to the progress window. Might help narrow it down a bit.

Re: Export

#152

Actually very few programs offer the option to append. Most say
overwrite, or name another file. Yes, it would be nice to say, it
exists, overwrite it or append to it. I will almost always say
overwrite. I already knew it existed and I don't need the old
stuff anymore.

  I notice that when you export log entries to an

  that you append the entries instead of overwriting
the old file.
  Since I use this feature mostly to add new entries to

  is not what I want. How about making append/replace optional?
