QSO Path in DX Atlas?


 

When using DXView World Map the WSJTX FT8 qso path is plotted correctly;y. If i enable DX Atlas map instead of the World Map, the qso path is not plotted. Is it possible to have the qso path shown in DX Atlas?

+ I just confirmed that DX Atlas version 2.3 correctly plots the QSO path.

+ Earlier, you reported here that you've just upgraded to DX Atlas version 2.41; perhaps there's been a regression in this new version.

2.41 is not a new version, it was released a year ago.

+ It's new for Paul W2ECK, as he reported in

My installation of DX Atlas v2.41 is not showing anything when running WSJTX. It is not showing the qso path. In an earlier thread on Grid Tracker, you posted a link to a screenshot of what appeared to be worked grids- I am also not seeing of my worked grids.
Is it possible I have not made the proper settings - somewhere in DXLab? or specifically in DXView? Or are there corresponding settings that have to be made in DX Atlas.
So far I haven't seen any of what others see in the? DX Atlas/WSJTX pairing.

Paul, in DX Altas are you telling it to show grids? ?There is a menu item that looks like this: #. ?Click it and a drop-down will appear with the option to show grids.

+ There is no "DX Atlas /WSJTX pairing".

+ DXView can interoperate with SpotCollector to display the locations of stations in its Spot Database and the stations that spotted those stations. If you have enabled interoperation between DXLab and WSJT-X, then the Spot Database will include stations decoded by WSJT-X:

https://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/GettingStartedwithK1JTModes

+ You can configure DXView to display the locations of these stations and their spotters on its built-in world map, on Google Earth, or by following these instructions to display them on the DX Atlas map:



+ You can configure DXView to display the locations of your logged QSOs, either on its built-in world map or by following these instructions to display them on the DX Atlas map:



+ You can configure DXView to display your worked and confirmed grid squares on the DX Atlas map by following these instructions:



+ All of the above articles are accessible by searching



+ for DX Atlas.

Hello Dave - it is my understanding that DX Atlas relies on the Log Provider (i.e. DXLab, HRD, etc.) to show the QSO path.? The functionality works great in DXLab, but I am looking for an option to increase the QSO path line density so that the path is more obvious.? Can you comment, take into consideration this enhancement.? Thanks Dave.? C

+ I don't understand why such an option is needed: here's a screen shot of DX Atlas that I just now made:



+ Please make a screen shot that shows QSO path lines on you DX Atlas World Map, attach it to an email message, and end the message to me via

Thanks Dave.? Sent reply directly to your email.? C


 

Craig, Dave, the request for an enhanced QSO Path in DX Atlas is of serious interest here. I would encourage an improvement at your own convenience (of course) if this is something you might look into. Thanks, Dave. Vic W4VIC?

+ When I couldn't locate documentation explaining how to draw wider lines on A DX Atlas world map, I consulted DX Atlas developer Alex VE3NEA. His response was that this capability is not currently available. I asked him to consider an enhancement.
