begin and end times flashing red
Dave,
When I open DXKeeper, the "begin" and "end" labels for the time of the last QSO are flashing red. DXKeeper wants me to make corrections to the last log entry before allowing me to navigate to other QSO's in the log. The begin and end times are the same for the last log entry: 12/19/2010 14:31 I imported a batch of Stew Perry Top Band contest QSO's from N1MMLogger. I didn't see this error at the time, but it could have been there and I didn't notice it. Since the import, I upgraded to DXKeeper 9.1.9. Advice as to how to fix this? Thanks.

DXLab's WW & KY CW COM
Rob Dennison
Gentlemen,
Just heard that DXLab's WinWarbler has implemented Kenwood's KY command for sending CW via the CAT interface. Since PowerSDR also implemented the KY command, it should be a snap to send CW via SDRxKs from WW. Because KY using an alpha string there should be no timing problems at all. Or more precisely any timing problems could be corrected inside PowerSDR. A WW user would have to tell us how to select KY for CW transfer to PowerSDR. Hope this helps, 73's Rob AB7CF |

Some time ago I went to the Microsoft Download site and downloaded IE6setup to a CD. Don't know if it has all the executables you need or if it goes back to the download center to get more stuff, but would be happy to send a copy to you.

First posting.
This is really just to test that our new mailing list is working
properly. Dave AA6YQ and I have had quite a few discussions via private e-mail regarding various facets of DXLab. I can tell you first hand that he is very open to new ideas as long as they fit within his grand plan for the future of DXLab. Glad you could join our list, let's make it a good one. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ (List moderator) www.w3zj.com |

DXKeeper 1.1.4
Dave, AA6YQ
At the suggestion of Rich W3ZJ, DXKeeper 1.1.4 introduces a QSO Capture
window. This relatively modest window allows one to quickly capture and log QSOs. To "raise" this window, click the Capture button on Log tab of DXLog's main window. Online help has not been updated, but the Capture window's tooltips should be sufficient for now. If you've installed DXKeeper 1.1.1 or later, you can upgrade to version 1.1.4 by downloading and then running www.qsl.net/dxkeeper/DXKeeper114Update.exe . An online help update is way overdue. The Telnet DXCluster interface and SpotCollector applications are working well enough to support my personal DXing, but there are quite a few rough edges to be smoothed before beta testing can begin. Unfortunately, they haven't helped me much with 3G0Y or 5H3RK on topband... While flying home from California last week, I extracted the propagation prediction code from the first-generation DXLab, and have it limping along as a standalone application. After arranging for it to interoperate with DXView (for point-and-click propagation), I'll post it at www.qsl.net/propview. Rich has also created and will moderate an e-mail reflector for the DXLab family of applications. I plan to use this reflector to describe future updates, and so encourage you to sign up if you're still interested in driving or tracking the evolution of this software. You can subscribe by sending a message to dxlab-subscribe@..., or by visiting . 73, Dave, AA6YQ |

Your test got through, and welcome to the group. The reflector is just getting started so we are a very small group right now, you are a charter member. As such, you probably won't be getting a large number of postings just yet. We hope and think it will grow. Thanks for joining. ------- 73, Rich - W3ZJ (list moderator) -----Original Message----- |

DXKeeper new capture window.
Dave,
I have been trying the new capture window and like it very much. This morning, I got the run time error from CI-V commander without WinWarbler running. What I had open was CI-V commander, DXKeeper (with the new capture window) and DXview. One small change of frequency from the radio dial and up came the error. It's not consistent though, I can't reproduce it at will. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com |

ARS rotor control
Dave,
Take a look at the following link which is some developers information on the rotor control that Ron asked about. From what I can gather it is not an RS232 interface but works with some plug in boards and drivers that you can access through DDE or Windows messaging. It looks like they would be happy to answer questions or help with the interface if you want to get involved with that. My guess is that the more software that supports them the happier they are. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com |

Re: DXKeeper new capture window.
Dave Bernstein
Rich found the documentation on their web site. Given that its a DDE
interface, I'll need a copy of their software for testing. It'd be best to get the software directly from the supplier -- as a customer, perhaps you could ask them on my behalf. 73, Dave, AA6YQ --- In dxlab@y..., "Ron Eberson" <zx@c...> wrote: it's use the paralel port as the printer.control?

CI-V Commander version 2.5.2 is available
Dave Bernstein
I've added additional error trapping to this version -- hopefully the
toggle quoted message
Show quoted text
runtime error 6 crash W3ZJ's been experiencing will be replaced by an entry in the error log that helps me track down the root cause. Its quite possible that this error trapping will enable the program to recover gracefully, so keep an eye out for an errorlog.txt file in your CI-V Commander folder. CI-V Commander version 2.5.2 is available by downloading and saving it into your CI-V Commander folder. You can then directly execute it. 73, Dave, AA6YQ --- In dxlab@y..., "Richard B Drake" <rich@w...> wrote:

Progress window
Dave,
When I click on a callsign in DXKeeper, obviously I have worked the guy, but the progress window does not always indicate any contact with his country. Also, I have worked 3G0Y 8 times on 80,30,20,10 meter CW, and 10, 15 meter SSB. The progress window shows only an F in CW and 40 meters. DXView shows that the prefix is CE0E. So I entered that in the filter window and clicked DXCC it came up with another station on Easter Island that I had worked on 40 CW but nothing for 3G0Y. I did a recompile in the progress window but nothing changed. Also, when I do a DXCC Summary, it shows 97 countries worked and 96 confirmed. Logger, which has a duplicate of the same log shows 252 countries worked and 52 confirmed which is correct. There are just short of 5000 entries in my log dating back to November 1999. Most of the entries in DXKeeper were imported from Logger. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com |

Re: Progress window
Dave Bernstein
Without seeing your log, I can't know for sure, but my suspicion is
toggle quoted message
Show quoted text
that many of your DXKeeper log entries are missing DXCC country codess -- likely because DXView was not running when these entries were created or imported. At the moment, DXKeeper relies on DXView to determine the DXCC entity associated with a callsign. I'll be adding this capability to DXKeeper before releasing it to beta test. If my diagnosis is correct, you can update your log entries by starting DXView and then recomputing progress. Let me know how it goes... 73, Dave --- In dxlab@y..., "Richard B Drake" <rich@w...> wrote:

was open when I did the recompute. I just did that again to make sure, it didn't help. However, I just noticed something else. When I click on 3G0Y in DXKeeper, the correct prefix, CE0Y shows up in DXView but the QSO window in DXKeepr shows CE which isn't right. When I do a lookup in the new capture window it correctly shows CE0Y. Does that tell you anything? Ah!!! That gave me a clue. What if Logger exported the wrong prefix. I just checked that and that's what happened. So, what that says is that recompute looks first in the log to see if there is a prefix present and only checks DXView if there is not one there. Is that the way you want it to work? If so, I can probably fix it by removing all the prefixes from the import ADIF file, removing the current DXKeeper log and doing the import again. That should force everything to be looked up in DXView - Right? ------- 73, Rich - W3ZJ -----Original Message----- |
