Re: DXKeeper 122
Yup, every time. I tried shutting down all other applications to

see if that had any affect - it didn't. 1) Type W7JJ into the capture window (a fictitious call sign, not in log) and press enter. 2) Correct the callsign to W7JJK, press enter again. 3 Click "log". Nothing happens, moving the cursor to the DXKeeper window displays a permanent hour glass cursor. 4) Shut down DXKeeper and restart, the QSO is not logged. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ -----Original Message----- |

More like a "dumb regression" in direct lat/lon QTH entry.

Subject: RE: [dxlab] DXKeeper, PropView, and DXView Dave, Yes, I tried the Vertical Time Bar in PathView and like it very much. Now the functionality is very intuitive. One little enhancement might make it even better, have the cursor change when it passes over the time bar to let you know when you are on it and also give a clue that you can probably drag it around. Bye the way thanks for pointing me to the N6RT propagation site. That's terrific and it was really interesting watching the dynamic X-RAY flux displays during yesterdays solar flare. It corresponded exactly with what was happening on the HF bands. A complete shut down of HF propagation with an X5 level flare and gradual return of propagation over the next couple of hours as the X-RAY flux dropped off to the C level. Amazing!! ---- 73, Rich - W3ZJ |
