[Dx4win] Fwd: WSJT to DX4WIN

Wed Oct 16 10:18:33 EDT 2019

You are right Dave the UDP is necessary and urgently, also thanks for clear explanation about dupes, very easy.

Thanks a lot and all the best .

As mentioned below, the default selection when handling dupes is that any duplicated QSOs from prior imports will be ignored.  So you can keep importing the entire log file, and DX4WIN will ignore the prior QSOs and only add the new QSOs.  You do not have to apply a date filter.  Keep importing the entire logfile from WSJT-X.  Just make sure when you get to the window that asks how to handle dupes, you just accept the default which is “the prior duplicate QSO will be ignored.”  This is a very slick feature.

> Hello dave, just to tell you that I thank you very much for your advice on WSJTX and tell you that I already managed to do it, although there were only 225 QSOs, now I need to know how you separate in the WSJTX log what you already passed to DX4WIN with the new thing you have to update.  Is the .ADI FILE deleted from the WSJTX?  Or is there a better way to do it.

We have asked Paul to consider adding UDP broadcast support to DX4WIN, so that once a QSO is logged within WSJT-X it would also automatically be logged in DX4WIN.  But Paul has not responded to this request -- even though most other logging programs already support UDP.

I have shortened the search process by mapping a drive in Windows to the folder within WSJT-X so that I can find the file faster.  But it is still not ideal.  We need UDP support.

Select the logfile and either double click or click on Open.  You will see a new window for "Options for duplicate QSOs", and make sure "that Imported QSO is ignored" is the one appearing in the drop down menu.  You want DX4WIN to ignore all duplicates as it imports the log from WSJT-X.  Click OK and you are done.

The manual import of the logfile is very time consuming and laborious, and can be a real problem when you are in the middle of a big opening on 6 meters into EU.  DX4WIN is an excellent logging problem except for this one glaring weakness.
