Re: DXKeeper 15.4.9 is available
+ AA6YQ comments below
"- enables the "Sync LoTW QSOs", "Sync LoTW QSLs" functions to work correctly when the CTRL key is depressed after the breaking changes made by the ARRL to LoTW's lotwreport programmatic interface (tnx to Vince VA3VF)" Can you explain this a little more? Mine seems to be working fine with v15.4.8 after I did a manual date change for "Sync LoTW QSOs" and "Sync LoTW QSLs" after ARRL broke it and then later fixed it. Should you only do this if it's not working? I don't want to re-download all 307k QSO records and 176.5k QSLs if I don't have to! HI + In an effort to prevent abuse by users who continuously download all of their QSOs from LoTW, the ARRL made changes to the API that DXKeeper uses to obtain information about submitted QSOs from LoTW. In the course of making those changes, they introduced two regressions, both of which were and reported by DXLab users and corrected by LoTW Staff within 48 hours. + They also made an unannounced permanent change to the API that broke the ability of DXKeeper's "Sync LoTW QSOs" and "Sync LoTW QSLs" functions to request all accepted QSOs or all confirmed QSOs respectively by depressing the CTRL key while invoking the operation. These "request all" functions should only be used when switching to DXKeeper from another logging application that does not include LoTW status information in the ADIF file it exported. + DXKeeper 15.4.9 restores the ability to "request all" by depressing the CTRL key while invoking "Sync LoTW QSOs" or "Sync LoTW QSLs". There is no need for any current DXLab user to do this. 73, Dave, AA6YQ |

Re: DXKeeper: Aux panel appears after Sync LotW QSOs operation
John -? I installed DXK 15.4.9 shortly after it became available. I am not seeing the behavior you are describing, but I don't recall seeing it in 15.4.8 either. I know that may not help you, except perhaps to remind you that 15.4.9 is available.? GL de Dave - K9FN On Tue, Apr 7, 2020 at 2:18 PM John Pelham <john@...> wrote: DXK 15.4.8.

Certificate status = Superceded". I am not sure if this gets passed back to DXK, but if it does, it would be cool to display the error to the user. Obviously this is super low priority if not even nice to have. + LoTW does not make that error message available to applications like DXKeeper. + If you routinely invoke "Sync LoTW QSOs" then click the LoTW button in the Filter panel at the bottom of the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab, the Log Page Display will be populated with any QSOs submitted to LoTW but not yet accepted by LoTW , enabling you to investigate if necessary. 73, Dave, AA6YQ |

Re: Problem in downloading eQSL images
+ AA6YQ comment sbelow
Sorry to come back to this issue. I *STILL* have the same problem and daily I have to download the eQSL images one by one. Not having seen in the past 6 weeks any other user raising the same problem I *DO* suspect that there is a mis-setting in my DxK (actually v. 15.4.9) prg. Could this be the case? + Highly unlikely. There has been no change to DXKeeper in this area for years. What do I have to recheck? + Contact the source of the error message: eQSL. 73, Dave, AA6YQ |

Re: Sync LOTW QSO's problem

Last night I downloaded the new TQSL version and upload three QSOs I made yesterday. I then ran sync and it worked, with the correct dates and only 13 QSOs reported.

In my case, I had 4 threats, all for Commander. I cleared all 4 of them. Now commander 14.5.5 shows up in DXlab launcher Configuration Was able to upgrade to 14.5.5 DXLab Launcher 2.1.2 now brings up commander 14.5.5 as it should.

Re: Commander -- Here we go again!!!
Can you elaborate on what you did to add DXLab to the exclusion list? Did you add an entire folder, individual files, etc? I had my first instance of the false positive the other day. I build an exclusion and haven't seen an issue reoccur since. 73, Mike ND9G On Tue, Apr 7, 2020 at 10:54 AM KY7M Lee <ars.ky7m@...> wrote:

It won’t even show the old file in my Dropbox on this computer after I added the working Commander.exe file to Dropbox from my other shack computer. ?
