Ernie and Group,

I run HDSDR and DX4WIN all the time...simply use LPB2, a free software
offered by Larry N8LP....You can have HDSDR, DX4WIN, N1MM and anything
else you want to linked to your rig....it works great...

The rest of your post can be added to our joint 'wish list'....Hi
Hi...along with updated rig files or movement to OmniRig...along with an
update Submission Sheet showing LOTW, Hard QSL or EQSL (EQSL yuck!,
sorry, editorial comment!)

Even the Report Generator is missing simple drop down indicators under
Report/ Action, Modes and Bands, showing different selections. This was
reported and not acted upon by Paul many versions ago...multiple rotor
controls...two (or more) telnet sessions...WWV numbers on the Map Screen
or on top of the QSO windows...simple integration of digital programs,
MMTTY/2Tone, better PSK31 integration...

DX4WIN is a remarkably simple, stable but outdated piece of software.
Paul did a great job with it many years ago but alas, now it just
flounders in limbo with little support or enhancement from him. If it
wasn't for Jim AD1C's tremendous support, I would have moved off this
archaic platform a long time ago.  There is little or no reason why
AD1C's enhancements were not embraced, supported and incorporated by Paul.

We, dear fellow DX4WIN users, are 'caught' in an trap...move off to
another and abandon what we have learned ...or stick with DX4WIN and
hope someone will get this platform back on the track.

Flaming each other does little or nothing to enhance or move this topic
forward.

73/ Regards....

Lou N2TU
