[Dx4win] Auto Packet Connection & Services

[Louis Dietrich]

Terry,

Read the below messages between Paul and myself in 2007 regarding the very
same issue you raised...

In addition to what Stan N3HS has mentioned, I wrote a very simple .bat file
which boots DX4WIN, ARuser (VE7CC), Ham Clock and HamCap and put this in my
start-up folder. When my PC starts, all the above programs boot and VE7CC
automatically connects to the cluster. 

What is still missing is the connection from DX4WIN to ARuser, which I asked
for in thee below email to Paul.

If you or anyone would like a copy of my .bat file, just let me know...of
course you'll have to slightly modify it for your file locations...

Maybe Paul will give us an option in the next release...hope the above
helps!

73....

"Hi Paul!...

Yes, I already moved it to the top....

A lot of us are using VE7CC software as a "front end" for DX4WIN...it allows
a lot of easy automatic filtering....DX4WIN really flies when you eliminate
all the crap on the clusters....

I wrote a simple "bat" file which boots DX4WIN and VE7CC programs...along
with HamCap and HamCLock....simply click a DX4WIN Icon and my screens are
filled with DX4WIN and the other programs....everything needed for logging,
propagation forecasting, filtering, etc....

The only thing missing is the automatic connection to the previously used
internet connection....it sure would be nice to click DX4WIN and have the
program boot and connect....as I said, it would be a neat option....

73...take care!....

Lou,

The easiest way is to edit dx4win.tcp and move your favorite node
to the top (use notepad for this)

Then a few Enter' keys in the packet window will select that node.

Two questions:

1.  Is it possible to configure DX4WIN to automatically connect to a 
cluster (VE7CC)?

2.  Is there some way to have DX4WIN start when the computer boots and 
NOT wait until I log in (like setting it up as a service)? 
    I'm using XP.
