[Dx4win] DX4WIN Upgrade

Thu Mar 19 13:22:14 EDT 2026

I don.t know what you are doing. I have been using Dx4Win for over 20 years.
It was version 6 when I first started using it. My current version of Dx4Win
is 9.09.1259. The last time it was updated on March 11, 2026. It gets
updated at least once a month. 

I wouldn't give up Dx4Win for any logging program. 

Good luck.

I still use DX4WIN ...going on.....I lost track, over 30 years probably? IN 

ADDITION, I use Ham Radio Deluxe. I have HRD talking to DX4WIN through a 

3rd party virtual serial port (using VSPE). I had to tell DX4WIN to use 

Kenwood CAT commands (even though my radio is a Yaesu FTDX101D).....because 

My research showed me that's the CAT commands HRD uses exclusively. To get 

DX4WIN and HRD working, it had to be Kenwood CAT commands. So DX4WIN and 

HRD are in sync....I can control the radio thru HRD....or thru 

DX4WIN....and I log in both. I also have HDSDR running in synch with HRD 

Using DDE. That gives me a 2nd more granular Bandscope than the one on the 

101D (using the IF out of the radio and an SDRPlay RSP1A SDR). So 

Everything works/talks to each other....the 101D....the DX4WIN...the 

HDSDR....the HRD. And YES, I still like DX4WIN because it has more 

Granularity for the DX cluster and spot alerts than HRD does. That's why I 

Haven't given up DX4WIN ....yet....after all these decades! 

Yes, I really do wish they would come out with a new version or upgraded 

Features....but I've come to accept that likely isn't going to happen. And 

So...I use both HRD and DX4WIN.............
