[Dx4win] Lost the spot window

Tue Jun 12 17:20:22 EDT 2018

Fixed!  It took a complete reinstall of 9.03 and then an update to 9.04.  I then loaded the config file from the previous install and when the windows loaded -- there was the DX Spot window!

That only took about five hours to figure out!  Despite battery backup, a long power failure yesterday seemed to mess up the computer.  DX4 was not running, but when I tried to start it last night everything blew up.

Seems to be all okay now.  Back to working DX.

Hi Paul,

I just tried closing the log.  Only the radio frequency control window is left open – and the top banner.  And the packet window is minimized.

Nothing else is visible.  I am using version 9.0.4.1176 and dual monitors.  When the log is open all other windows are displayed in the correct positions across both monitors.

Dave,

When you close your log there will be fewer windows open; it may have been covered by another window?

I had a major corruption on my main pc.  Have restored config settings but cannot get the Spot window to display.  I tried resetting W-SPOT in the config file to top=0 and left=0, but still cannot see/find spot window.

Packet window at start up works fine and it logs into localhost:7300 and displays first 25 spots.  But no Spot window.  And no bandmap.  I need to see the spot window to bring up bandmap.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thank you.
