This release corrects the "lookup last log entry" defect reported below, and restores input focus to the QSO Capture Callsign textbox after a lookup operation. If you've already installed DXKeeper 1.1.1 or later, you can upgrade to version 1.2.2 by downloading and then running http://www.qsl.net/dxkeeper/DXKeeper122Update.exe . If you haven't yet installed DXKeeper, a full install is available via http://www.qsl.net/dxkeeper/download.htm . 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message----- From: Dave, AA6YQ [mailto:dhb@...] Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2001 17:34 PM To: dxlab@... Subject: [dxlab] DXKeeper, PropView, and DXView The "lookup last log entry" blemish is fixed, and clicking Lookup (in the Capture window) now restores input focus to the Callsign textbox. If nothing else shows up for a few hours, I'll release these in DXKeeper 1.2.2 tonight. I'd like to release PropView 1.0.3 and DXView 1.2.7 (with the working title bar clock) to a larger audience, probably via announcement to several DX and propagation reflectors. Any comment on the recent Vertical Time Bar change before I reduce flexibility by adding users? 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message----- From: Richard B Drake [mailto:rich@...] Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2001 16:10 PM To: Dxlab Subject: [dxlab] DXKeeper 121 Dave, I have used V121 this afternoon to log several contacts and it seems to be working well now. One thing that seems strange is that after logging a contact it picks up the callsign of the previous contact and puts it into DXView. Not a big deal it just seems odd. I am also appreciating the contest fields this afternoon. When I am serious about a contest, I will set up WriteLog which is specifically designed for contesting and has many special contesting features. But if I am just dabbling with a contest such as this weekends SPDX contest (i.e. if I hear an SP calling CQ contest, I'll call him and give him a contact) the additional contest fields and keeping track of sequence number are very nice. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com Yahoo!

In this release, the mouse cursor changes to a left-right positioning icon when it passes over the Vertical Time Bar, as Rich suggested below. If you already have PropView 1.0.1 installed, you can upgrade by downloading and running www.qsl.net/propview/PropView104Update.exe -- it will update your online help and install PropView104.exe, which you can then run. If you haven't yet installed PropView, a full install is available via www.qsl.net/propview/download.htm , 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message----- From: Richard B Drake [mailto:rich@...] Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2001 17:48 PM To: dxlab@... Subject: RE: [dxlab] DXKeeper, PropView, and DXView Dave, Yes, I tried the Vertical Time Bar in PathView and like it very much. Now the functionality is very intuitive. One little enhancement might make it even better, have the cursor change when it passes over the time bar to let you know when you are on it and also give a clue that you can probably drag it around. Bye the way thanks for pointing me to the N6RT propagation site. That's terrific and it was really interesting watching the dynamic X-RAY flux displays during yesterdays solar flare. It corresponded exactly with what was happening on the HF bands. A complete shut down of HF propagation with an X5 level flare and gradual return of propagation over the next couple of hours as the X-RAY flux dropped off to the C level. Amazing!! ---- 73, Rich - W3ZJ

This release corrects the regression noted below. If you've already installed DXView, you can upgrade by downloading http://www.qsl.net/dxview/DXView127Update.exe - store it in your DXView folder and execute it; you can then run the extracted DXView127.exe . If you've not installed DXView, a full install is available via http://www.qsl.net/dxview/download.htm . 73, Dave, AA6YQ -----Original Message----- From: Dave Bernstein [mailto:dhb@...] Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2001 1:48 AM To: dxlab@... Subject: [dxlab] DXView 1.2.6 regression The title bar UTC clock does not function in this release -- I disabled it while debugging something, forgot to restore it, and failed to notice its condition during pre-release testing. I'll correct it in the next release. Any comments on the proposal to create an alternative DXView window that consumes less screen space by presenting less information and by displaying a smaller map? What fields should be retained in this window? 73, Dave, AA6YQ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to: dxlab-unsubscribe@... Your use of Yahoo!

PropView uses the IonCAP propagation prediction engine to forecast the minimum and maximum useable frequencies between two locations over a specified 24 hour period. Results are rendered in an easy-to-understand color-graphic display. Locations can be specified via direct latitude/longitude entry. Alternatively, PropView interoperates with DXView to allow location selection by entering a DXCC prefix, or by selecting locations on a world map; this interoperation requires DXView version 1.2.7. PropView requires a PC running Windows 9X, 2000, NT, or XP with an SVGA or better display. This application is free, and contains no advertising. Commercial use is expressly forbidden. PropView is available for download via www.qsl.net/propview ;IonCAP installation is included in the process. For a sample screenshot, see http://www.qsl.net/propview/propview.jpg . To peruse the online help, see http://www.qsl.net/propview/Help/index.htm . DXView, given a callsign, callsign fragment, or prefix, determines the associated DXCC entity, reporting its location and beam heading from your QTH. DXView presents a world map, upon which beam headings, stations you spot, the sun's position, and the solar terminator are continuously displayed. DXView can also display country maps for more than 250 DXCC entities. DXView supports M2, Hygain DCU-compatible (with or without Rotor-EZ), and Yaesu PC-controlled rotator controllers, allowing you to select a short-path or long-path heading with one mouse click. If you've already installed DXView, you can upgrade by downloading http://www.qsl.net/dxview/DXView127Update.exe - store it in your DXView folder and execute it; you can then run the extracted DXView127.exe . If you've not installed DXView, a full install is available via http://www.qsl.net/dxview/download.htm . PropView and DXView are members of the DXLab Suite, described at www.qsl.net/dxlab . Other released members of this suite include Pathfinder, CI-V Commander, and WinWarbler; more are planned and in progress.

Okay sorry for the dumb question.... I cannot program in my longitude / latitude. The help file tells me to enter 00 '00 N (or whatever) but DXVIEW does not allow me to enter the ' character. I can enter 00.00 but it will not let me enter a N,S,E, or W. Andy KB2EOQ

This release corrects the defect that prevents direct entry of QTH latitude and longitude in the Configuration window's General tab. If you've already installed DXView, you can upgrade by downloading http://www.qsl.net/dxview/DXView128Update.exe - store it in your DXView folder and execute it; you can then run the extracted DXView128.exe . 73, Dave, AA6YQ

Is it posible to see the Prefix also now i see the degrees in the new version. The old you see the prefix can we make a choce in that. Sorry for my English i know that it's not correct. 73's Ron

Sorry a mastake from my site about prefix etc. I am to fast with make a e mail about something i must look first before ask and mailing. Let we think thats Europe same on the band if there is DX hahahah

Dave, I have occasionally experienced a problem with DXKeeper hanging up on me, it seems to get stuck in an infinite loop. It took me a while to figure out how to reproduce it, but here it is. If I enter a call in the capture window and press enter to do the look up, then later without clearing the capture window I go back and make a correction to the callsign and press enter again, everything seems fine but when I go to log that QSO, DXKeeper is hung up. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com

Starting DXView 1.2.8 while DXKeeper is already running fails to establish communications between the two. One has to shut down DXKeeper and restart it to establish the connection. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com

DXkeeper does not remember from one session to the next that I have turned off "Show control explanations" ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com

This release corrects the defect responsible for generating a runtime error if DXView is not installed. You can upgrade to PropView 1.0.5 by downloading and running www.qsl.net/propview/PropView105Update.exe -- it will install PropView105.exe , which you can then run. 73, Dave, AA6YQ

-Dave is it posible to make a second button on the window at GO in DXView? this button can copy the call to DXKeeper and so you can use it direct now i must type the call again in DXKeeper also i can use Propview direct. Ron

I am running CI-V Commander version 1.2.2 using the KG7SG interface I just made. I am able to control the ICOM 746 via the computer but I am not able to receive any data from the radio. I have double checked all wiring and software and radio config settings with no luck. I am still suspicious that it is in the wiring but I am hoping that it is something simple in the software or at the radio that I may have overlooked. Suggestions from any is gratefully welcomed Thank you 73 de KB2VNB

This release - properly saves the state of "Show Control Explanations" between sessions - includes instrumentation to detect the "persistent hourglass" defect (please be on the lookout for an error log) - automatically restarts the inter-application communication link with DXView, should it terminate - adds the option of specifying a UTC filter based on start date and end date (settings can be adjusted by depressing the control key while clicking the UTC filter button) If you've already installed DXKeeper 1.1.1 or later, you can upgrade to version 1.2.3 by downloading and then running http://www.qsl.net/dxkeeper/DXKeeper123Update.exe ; your online help will be updated by this process. 73, Dave, AA6YQ

Dave, I notice that when you export log entries to an existing ADIF file that you append the entries instead of overwriting the old file. Since I use this feature mostly to add new entries to eQSL.cc this is not what I want. How about making append/replace optional? ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com

An interesting feature that was just added to WriteLog, is mouse wheel tuning of the radio - pretty slick. How about CI-V commander? I think 10Hz a click would be good, just right for a little fine tuning. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com

Dave, The progress table does not seem to get updated as I add new ones. I have to do a "Recompute" for them to show up. ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com

This release - correctly updates the progess table when QSOs are logged from the Capture window - contains more instrumentation aimed at isolating the "persistent hourglass" problem - if you export to an existing file, gives you the option of clearing the file's contents before the exported records are written - has improved export performance (~3000 QSOs per minute on this 300 mhz machine) If you've already installed DXKeeper 1.1.1 or later, you can upgrade to version 1.2.4 by downloading and then running http://www.qsl.net/dxkeeper/DXKeeper124Update.exe 73, Dave, AA6YQ

Dave, I have been running V 1.2.4 most of the day and so far I have been unable to break it. I created a new error log before installing it and so far it's empty. Looking good :-) ----- 73, Rich - W3ZJ www.w3zj.com
