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
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.

Amen Bill,

Dave's SW should be studied by all aspiring SW engineers!

More thanks than you'll ever know, Dave!

Re: alarm on Pathfinder 4.4.6

Hi Danny,

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.

dont
know why the problem when I try either ie5 or ie6, but when I have
the
executable up and running, it goes to the MS site, says its
starting, then
just sits there, never completing the job. I eventually stop it
(after an
hour or more), and I do have high speed download here. Once, I even
left it
connected and supposedly downloading for 4 hours, came back and it
was still
just sitting there. Its odd, because when I try to do it again, it
comes
back and asks if I wasnt to continue, or start from the beginning.
Doesnt
matter which I select, it still doesnt do anything.

At work, I had a complete copy I used there, without having to do
the
playing around, but when I retired, I forgot to bring a copy with
me. We
just got tired of dealing with that, for hundreds of computers. I
suspect I
will be able to put the Win2000 disc back in, and get it from there,
but
dont want to foul things up, being as I am down to just one
operating
computer here right now. Still waiting for a new hard drive for the
family
computer - and want to keep one operational. HI.

Actually I don't think you can completely remove IE from your
system.
There have been huge lawsuits over that but Microsoft claims it is
an
integral part of the system and cannot be removed.

With WinXP+ you can hide the IE desktop Icon and make another
browser
the default but you can't remove IE. Yes if you want to download
IE 7
(It's a big improvement over IE 6 so I recommend you do that) it
first gets a very small executable that I believe determines what
parts of IE you need to download for your particular system and
downloads only what you need. That works, and it minimizes the
amount
of stuff you need to download. Why is that a problem?

It

you have to have IE in order to get IE. Makes a lot of sense!!
Even

just

but
eerywhere
I look it just want to upload the setup files, and that fails
every time
I
try to use it. Using Win2000Pro here, and have tried IE5 and 6
both. If
I
misremember, 6 is for XP?

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

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.

Steve K8JQ
