[Dx4win] Configuring DX4WIN to work with QRZ.COM

[SV1DPI Kostas]

I use this url in both boxes
http://www.qrz.com/
If the station has a manager is probably better what Isidro suggested.
But if the station has not a manager you will receive a reply that there is
not the station.
Beside all these i noticed something strange with qrz.com itself.
I made the tests with gb0sgi (eu120) who was one of my last staions i
worked.
When i tried with Isidro configuration qrz.com gave me g0wjz like manager
Instead of this when i tried with my way it gave me m0anm like the manager,
which is the right according 425 dx news bulletin and daily dx also.

Hi Jim, and all the DX4win fellows...

> Can someone please send me instructions or a screen shot showing how

1) In the main menu go to File > Preferences > Ext Data >
Website callsign lookup.

2) Mark the "Enabled" box.

3) Put http://www.qrz.com/ in the "Callsign lookup address" box.

4) Put http://www.qrz.com/callsign?qsl= in the "QSL manager lookup address"
box.

5) File > Save changes and exit.

Now, when you have a callsign in the QSO log, hit F3 (The Callsign/Mgr
lookup windows will appear with the related info).  Hit Enter and the
Internet browser will open with the QRZ.com page showing the QSL manager
data.

Note:  If you invert the steps 3) and 4) (i.e. puting
http://www.qrz.com/callsign?qsl= in the "Callsign lookup address" box" and
vice-versa), when you hit Enter after F3, You will get the QRZ.com page
showing the data for the callsign, not for the manager.
