[Dx4win] Custom award value

[k2dbk at k2dbk.com]

I've seen this as well. It's not every time, and I can't put a finger on what might trigger it. I don't think it's related to how many awards I've entered or how long D4W has been running, it seems pretty random. I have what is essentially a gaming computer and I don't believe it's due to file size or anything that CPU-bound. If I exit D4W and restart it the issue goes away, but it can then eventually come back.

Mark, the same thing happens to me.
When I enter Custom Award and then enter a POTA reference, the first time it does it correctly, but when I later try to enter another reference, it stays waiting and sometimes the message appears: the program does not respond, wait or end.
I tell it to wait and after a short time it allows me to enter the new reference.
Mark, I assume it's because the file is too large and perhaps my team doesn't manage it well.
I have an HP laptop with an AMD A-10 5745M processor and 8 GB of RAM running Win 11 23H2, and I only use it for the radio.
I don't know if this is what you're referring to, I don't think it's DX4WIN's problem, but rather my team's, since no one has talked about it until now.
All the best.
