[Dx4win] DX4WIN Upgrade

[Dan Violette]

I don’t want this to be a back/forth nor a negative on DX4WIN (which I did
use for about 20 years and really liked "back then").  It did stop evolving
long time ago and we waited 2-3 years for needed updates (no upgrades
though).  LOTW interface was requested and suggested at least 6 years ago.
There has not been an updated version of any kind in over 6 years, I think
it is?  I moved to DXLABS about that long ago and have all the features
being talked about needed in DX4WIN.  DXLABS does take up real estate and
was a learning curve.  I liked DX4WIN efficiency for what it could do, but I
was spending too much time doing things that are now a click away so was
worth the change.

Paul used to at least talk about future plans (which ended up showing up at
least a year later than expected) but I have not seen anything in at least 4
years.  I understand he probably did not get enough "reward" for the time
spent.  My wish was that he would have said he was done updating since I
wasted a couple years waiting/hoping (I am an optimist)...

Agree.  Automatic logging of FT8 QSO's without having to import WSJT-x logs
would be nice as well.

Hi everyone,I have been a happy user of DX4WIN for a number of years, but
have now had to switch to a more updated and modern logging program. I miss
the user interface of DX4WIN and wonder if there are any plans to upgrade
DX4WIN to have the same functionality as e.g. LOG4OM2. What I am thinking of
is e.g. integration with LOTW, CLUBLOG, QRZLOG automatic upload
etc.73´sTrond , LA1TV
