Re: LoTW Application query
Thanks for the answer, but there isn't an option to set the LoTW recvd to 'C'. I only have R, Y, S, V, I or X to choose from, so theyWhich, at present, is the correct answer for - both LotW and Card - confirmations received while an application is pending (about two months these days). Then one must use the DXKeeper submission generator to find those "new" confirmations in the future. It would be handy if ADIF/Dave were to defined a 'P' (pending) status for those of us who prefer to manually prepare submissions as the confirmations arrive. 73, ...

Re: LoTW Application query
Hi Phil,
The newly confirmed QSOs should be left set to 'C' until you generate a new submission. Just because they were confirmed while you have an application pending, the new QSOs will not be processed in addition to the original 88. I'm guessing you assumed they would be added and that is why you want to set them to 'S'? So, no sticky note needed, DXK will handle the new confirmations as part of your next submission. 73, Chuck KM3V |

LoTW Application query
Hi Dave and the group, ? Last week, I made an LoTW application (88 slots), but since then, I have had some new slots confirmed via LoTW. Because I have an application pending, I am unable to add these via LoTW, and also, I can't set these to "S" in the LoTW rcvd box, as when my application is granted, those with the S set since would be changed to V when I verify the current submission. ? Is there a way within DXKeeper to handle this? I currently just have a "Sticky Notes" on screen with notes about these QSO's. ? 73 de Phil GU0SUP |

updated eQSL AG, LoTW, and RDA databases are available ...
?
... via the Databases tab of DXView's Configuration window.
?
Terminate DXKeeper, WinWarbler, and SpotCollector before directing DXView to update these databases.
Note: if DXKeeper, WinWarbler, and SpotCollector are running when you direct DXView to update these databases, it will display a small window that informs you of that fact, and directs you to terminate them before proceeding. If you do terminate those applications, then afterwards click the window's OK button and DXView will proceed to update the databases; if you don't want to terminate those applications, click the window's Cancel button, and DXView won't attempt to update the databases. In the next version of DXView, I've improved the message in the small window to be more clear about the functions of its OK and Cancel buttons. ? ? 73,

Re: question regarding Commander
Should the stright through cable work or do I need a nullComputer is generally DTE. Does the 7800 have a female DE9 RS-232 connector and the computer a male DE9 connector? If so, a straight through (pin for pin) connection is appropriate. It should work with connections for only pins 2,3 and 5 ... make sure Commander and the IC-7800 are set for the same CI-V address (6Ah default) and the same data communication rate. DO NOT use the default AUTO in the 7800 - either 9600 or 19200 should work fine.

开云体育Good Morning All, Still trying to get the 7800 wired up right to the pc to get DX Lab working. What I am using from the 7800 to the pc is a db9 straight through cable. In the 7800 manual it says the rs232 jack is wired as a modem (dce). Should the stright through cable work or do I need a null modem cable?

Re: Missing Distances/Grids after carefully following distance computation procedure.
+ AA6YQ comments below?
+ Some of your logged QSOs were missing grid squares because when you imported them, you had the "Ignore geocoded grid squares..." option enabled in the QRZ panel on the Configuration window's Callbook tab. ?
+ To fill in the missing grid squares after disabling that option, you could have done the following on the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab:
1. Filter the Log Page Display with the SQL expression len(GRIDSQUARE)=0 2. Depress the CTRL key while clicking the CBA button + Unless error messages of the form "Component X is missing" or "Library Y can't be found" are displayed, one should never attempt to solve a problem by uninstalling and then re-installing a DXLab application. It's the automotive equivalent of pulling the engine on your car because the gas tank is empty: it can't possible solve the problem, but can create new problems that are far worse than the actual problem. ? ? ? ?73, ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Dave, AA6YQ ?

Re: Missing Distances/Grids after carefully following distance computation procedure.
Dave and all,
?
Last update.? ?
?
I did uncheck the "Ignore geocoded gridsquare" box after deleting all previously imported contacts with the missing grids.
?
Upon a much more lengthy import, essentially ALL grid squares are present enabling me to map all of them, which, I will post examples of a bit later.
?
Dave, thank you for your tools, your support and your patience.? Awesome tools....which I will post more about analyzing our 2024 field day event later.
