I wanted to go back and look at my DX Marathon submission for 2024. If I push Alt + Progress, it does not ask me for a year. It only gives me the 2025 report. Thanks 73 Kent N6WT

If I work a number of stations during a contest, but I don’t plan to mail out QSL cards to everybody I worked and I want to change QSL Sent to “N” in one move how do I do it? I know that I go into the DXKeeper Advanced Sorts, Filters & Modifiers. Then create a Filter to isolate them. Finally, under “Modify QSOs in Log Play Display I set QSL_Sent to “N”. The question is what would the filter look like? 73, Bob KB4CL

For me this will mean no more SpotCollector emails to my iPhone via SMS alerting me to a potentially needed and workable spot. OTOH I still get notifications from HamAlert to the HamAlert app on my phone. FYI Jim ab3cv

Hello, I wanted to know if there is a way to copy a profile from 1 computer to another ? I had a crash and lost the laptop. I have a good working install on a desktop. Scott N2SAB

These spots were all for SSB. Since there are no SSB skimmers available yet, all of these spots appeared to be manually entered, but in fact they were generated by a computer. Normally the human entered spots never are more than 60 per minute. During the weekend spots that were bogus were entered at many thousands per minute. These spots were targeting specific active calls. These spots were giving different frequencies on all contest bands for each bogus spot. These spots had same DX call and a different spotter call and different originating cluster call. This caused many nodes to get bogged down trying to process all this data. Some crashed. Others got hopelessly behind and continued sending data to my cluster which dropped the spots because they were too old. Millions of spots were being dropped. My cluster limits the number of spots to 60 per minute. This limited bogus spots but also good spots in each minute. When bogus spots stopped, then all the new good ones got through. Lee VE7CC

I've had one notice of a failed attempt to upload to LotW. I'm thinking that I need to manually upload later. I believe that this notice relates to a single QSO upload from DXLabs. I just don't know which one failed. Is there a DXLab way to find it? I have (accidentally) done my first Sync All. It shows I have work to do, grin. _______________ TQSL error message: TQSL Version 2.7.5 [v2.7.5] Signing using Callsign NU6T, DXCC Entity UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Attempting to upload one QSO C:\DXLab\DXKeeper\LotWUpload.ADI: Unable to connect to the upload site.

The short path probability box on the Spotcollector 9.8.3 main panel has no entries, as it used to do. I don't know what I changed to cause this. On the configuration general tab, in the Propagation Prediction panel, the enable SNR box and for all stations boxes are checked. The default required SNR is set to 0 db. PropView 2.0.7 is open. On the config prediction tab, all bands except 60m are selected. The required SNR for CW is 10, for SSB 20, for FT8 -24. What am I missing? 73, Steve K2SN

+ AA6YQ comments below Dave, you note: “If the PW1 is connected to Commander's Secondary CAT port and no other device, then the only way CI-V collisions can occur is if the PW1 transmit CI-V messages.” Are you saying definitively that the PW1 is never shutting up? Could you can see this in an error log? + Yes, I should be able to do so. You should be able to see it in Commander's Messages window if you uncheck "Capture and display Primary CAT Port Messages" and check " Capture and display Secondary CAT Port Messages". The > and < characters to the immediate right of the timestamp will show whether Commander or the PW1 transmitted each message. 73, Dave, AA6YQ

However, when I turn the I am having trouble setting up my IC-PW1 in DXLabCommander. Please help. I am not good at English. I am writing this with translation software, so sorry if the text is strange. I want to connect IC-PW1 and SteppIR to IC-7600, but the frequency control of IC-PW1 does not work together even if I set DXLabCommander and IcomPW1 control as described in the manual. IC-7600 (Primary CAT Serial Port) is connected to PC (DELL Win11) via USB port (COM X) and IC-PW1 and SteppIR (Secondary CAT Serial Port) are connected via USB interface to the same COM port (COM Y). The IC-7600 is connected to the PC (DELL Win11) via the same COM port (COM Y). After the initial setup, when the IC-7600 and IC-PW1 are turned on, the PW1 alert lights up, and after clicking it, they can be controlled in power off and on again, the AUTO LED on the IC-PW1 is lit, but the PW1 alert on the DXLabCommander is not lit and the frequency control is not linked. Then, when the frequency is changed using the UP or DOWN switch on IC-PW1, the PW1 alert lights up, and when the AUTO LED is turned on again and the PW1 alert is clicked, the frequency control is linked. Also, sometimes, when the power is turned on again, PW1 alert lights up and when clicked, it works correctly. This is the situation. Please let me know how to set it up so that I can control it correctly. Shige:JJ1BCM

For some time now, double clicking on a spot (Spot Collector) doesn't change the frequency of the RTX connected via CAT. Sometimes after 5 or 6 mouse clicks the frequency finally changes but not always. Until some time ago this did not happen and by clicking on each spot the radio immediately QSY. The strange thing is that if I use the QSY function in the menu (using the right mouse button), the Rtx immediately switches to the correct frequency of the spot. Instantly I use a PC with Windows 10 and all DX Lab applications updated to the latest versions. I tried to search through the settings windows to see if there was an item to activate but without luck. Note: DX Lab Commander manages 3 devices (Multiradio) and the problem is present on both radios (1 Icom and 2 Yaesu). Thank you in advance to anyone who wants to give me some suggestions on where to investigate. 73, IZ4MJP Franco

449/5000 Good morning, I have a problem with Pathfinder here. Pathfinder sometimes freezes. Then the only solution is CRTL-ALT-Delete and then force shutdown. and restart again then work pathfinder again. Sometimes it is very fast, other times it takes a little longer. are there more who recognize this problem? And perhaps already have a solution? I work with the complete DXLSuite thanks for the response. greeting Rien, PA7RA Stay Safe!

Perhaps it's just my memory failing or me not reading enough posts here but I see that I have a lot of "C" in the DXView matrix for QSO that are fully verified on LoTW. The QSO in question show up as "Card QSL" in LoTW although that I am positive I have received LoTW confirmations for before applying for credits. Also, clicking "update from lotw" just reports the QSO as "accepted and confirmed" although they are fully verified in my DXCC challenge account. Could this be a side effect of the "emergency repair" done last spring, perhaps? Bj?rn SM7IUN

I've learned much about monitors and graphics cards, and my ignorance remains vast, grin. I've decided to try my existing system with a 2K, QHD, 1440p wide monitor, and go up from there as needed. I'll report more later. I chose to take a too good Amazon deal for $200 on a Spring sale after seeing a very similar model at Best Buy for $280: acer Nitro 31.5" WQHD 2560 x 1440 1500R Curved Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync | Up to 180Hz Refresh | 1ms (VRB) | Tilt | 1 x Displayport 1.4 & 2 x HDMI 2.0 | EDA323QU S3bmiiphx https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D9HP796Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I'm passing this along should others have an interest. I may later decide that I need a second small monitor for maps. I have a 16" portable monitor that may work. YMMV. 73 Rich, NU6T-- Richard Hill

Hi all, Recently started using Spot Collector, and am pleased report that it has already helped collect a few band-specific "new ones". Had a bit of a scare though, LOL - hadn't run it for a few days and yesterday evening and today it wouldn't display any new spots ... which was a bit surprising today given it's the CQ-WPX-SSB weekend. Read various threads on here and went through the suggested troubleshooting steps, but couldn't fix it. Read the error log, which said "program error 3049 in module SpotDatabaseModule.RecordSpot with state = 371: Cannot open database ''. It may not be a database that your application recognizes, or the file may be corrupt" - found the database had grown to 2GB (!) and telling the app to prune the database and compact it (in the Spot Database tab's Size Control panel) ... now the database is only 6MB and spots are coming in. Just thought I'd share that in case someone runs into a similar issue. Anyway, my question is unrelated to that. I have trimmed the number of columns in the main window down to the few I need, but the order they appear in is fixed. Is there some way of re-ordering them so that, for example, I have the "DXCCPrefix" column first on the left, then the "Callsign" column, then the "Frequency", etc? 73, Mike VK2IG

I am happy to announce that Tom NY4I has agreed to provide ongoing support and development for the N1MM-DXKeeper Gateway. I've updated the entry in https://www.dxlabsuite.com/download.htm#Bridges,%20Gateways,%20%20and%20Extenders with the Gateway's new Online Help: https://ny4i.github.io/DxKeeper-UDP-Gateway/ which Tom has already updated to reflect new functionality that he has added. Requests for help, defect reports, and enhancement requests are all still welcome here. Thanks, Tom!!! 73, Dave, AA6YQ

+ AA6YQ comments below An important distinction is that most of the features of these performance graphics cards are not going to be used at all with typical ham applications. Almost nothing in the ham application use 3D graphics. Instead, it's the 2D rendering performance that is key but it's not talked about at all in most card reviews. This is especially important because there is a complete and total mess in the higher end graphics market now which may confused and scare away hams from picking up a very fine graphics card that would meet their needs. Fortunately there is a web page that will help guide relative speeds of graphic cards, both old and newer ones. https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/GPU_mega_page.html Take note at the G2D column, and sort from highest to lowest. Then just go down that list and check whatever graphic card you have an interest in. Notice that the fastest card on the list is about 1000 in the 2D speed. The card I have in my main PC (GTX 1060) scores 770 - a card that must be at least 5 years old. It runs a trio of UHD monitors here in the shack. And you can get a similar one for under $100 on ebay. I'm not advocating this card, rather mentioning that whatever card you are thinking of buying can be judged on it's speed by consulting this list. And anything that's on the top half (500 or more) will most certainly be completely fine for ham applications. + It would be nice to have a "Selecting a Video Card" article in the DXLab Wiki to go with the "Selecting a Monitor" article developed by Dave W6DE: https://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/MonitorsForOldEyes + The above guidance regarding 2-dimensional rendering performance would certainly be included in "Selecting a Video Card", but there are additional considerations: - resolution - refresh rate - power consumption - physical size - monitor connectivity (HDMI, DisplayPort, etc.) - motherboard compatibility + Would someone like to take a crack at this? 73, Dave, AA6YQ

I moved into a new Win11 PC. In DXK it showed be what QSL service they belonged to by color. Now all the contacts appear as white. What config option am I missing? -Kurt, KR2C

I hope this is not too far off topic. I'm researching graphics cards and monitors to upgrade my shack to have more DXLabs and WSJT-X windows. My current monitor is a TV/Monitor that just does not offer enough room for much more than WSJT-X or DXKeeper. I do understand that I do not need all windows open at once to be able to use DXLabs. I gave my daughter my old monitor and it allowed so much more on the screen while maintaining good detail. My problem is I have not yet been able to define the use case so I can decide which combination of capabilities is best for ham radio. There is a good general reference on this subject in the DXLab references. Written by Dave, W6DE, it is: https://www.dxlabsuite.com/dxlabwiki/MonitorsForOldEyes My computer has an Intel UHD 730 graphics card (max resolution is 1920 x 1080p but 1360 x 760p is recommended). It may well be too basic for a UHD or 4K monitor (3840 x 2160p), and I'm not yet convinced that a QHD 1440p monitor will meet my needs. I'm seeing UHD graphics cards designed for gaming or photo editing that seem to cost as much as a monitor. I'm doubting that hams need all that graphics power but I don't actually know what capability I need to have. My real goal is to be able to place most of the DXLabs windows up at once with enough sharpness to read all the details. I'm looking to understand what is needed in a new graphics card to match a 4K/UHD or a 1440p monitor without breaking the bank, grin. Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks Rich, NU6T -- Richard Hill
