[Dxbase] DM780 (HRD) to DxBASE QSO Forwarding Problem

[Joe WA6AXE]

Tom,

Back in May 2011 I sent out an email talking about DM780 -- here is what that
email said ::

//quote//

ALL:

I was trying to see if there was a way to make a BRIDGE for the
HRD5/DM780 program -- NO!!   

The HRD4 with DM780 CAN send the BASIC QSO data directly to
DXbase -- and this has been that way for years now -- BUT, when
HRD5 came out, the method by which Simon sets-up the
COMMS to any external program (Like DXbase) is that 

DM780 + HRD5 + DXbase have to ALL be active ... So, with this in
mind - I am not going to proceed any further on trying to make a
BRIDGE for HRD5/DM780 to send the BASIC Fields PLUS the EXTRA
ones -- 

If the DM780 could talk directly to DXbase - without having to have
HRD5 Main program ALSO open -- I would try -- but, this really is
too much -- 

and, we have so many other programs out there to select from.

Just FYI for any HamRadioDeluve (HRD5) users!
