[Dx4win] wish list for 8.02 or later

[Tibor M. Blum - IK2SAI -]

Ok, i don't know if it is appropriate at this time to make a post like this.

 

Any way: I would like to ask a pair of things to Paul.

 

1)       we can understand that CAT is a very complicated matter. Dx4win do
that in a very primitive manner. But. now that dx4win has the band map
should be very interesting to run connected to the radio. Problem is that
many of us are using dedicated CAT software like HRD or, for the TS2000, the
ARCP2000. Many of use have more than 2.3 radio connected. The only way to
run dx4win together with such these software is a com emulator. I tried a
number of them but they show some problem with dx4win. Now, because dx4win
will be not a CAT program but it is simply the best logging software around
should be a nice feature if, dx4win itself provides  a virtual com system,
good for itself and good for us running a multitasking system. Should be a
nice touch now that the best cat program around (HRD) is going to implement
a logging  software by itself (HRD). Some people should be driven to migrate
from dx4win to HRD log.  

 

2)       This is much more simple. I ham an avid cluster user. All the time
that I connect to my node I do have a number of operations that should be
easy to implement like a macro or something like that. I mean that when I
start dx4win, my log should be connected directly to my node and should
clean all the previous spots in its windows. At the contrary they are all
manual opr.

 

Holidays are at the end.. Contest season is back to the door and seems that
propagation is going to do a better job than last year.

73 and good dx
