Subject: [Dxbase] VE7CC problem
Message-ID: <000001cfdf14$1286fc50$3794f4f0$@net>

I have been using the VE7CC program for years now on XP machines.  I
installed it on my laptop which is running Windows 8.1.  The program loads
ok but I cannot connect to any sites.  I get this error message "Winsock
Error: 10060: The attempt to connect timed out: VE7CC-1".  Is there anyone
that can help me with this?

There is a mail reflector for the VE7CC program and you can always email
Lee.

HI dxbase-users,

 

A friend of mine using dxbase2007, version 1.06 and has now a problem using
autolotw254-program.

Since the ARRL has changed the login-www-address of lotw last week the
autolotw254-program from Joe doesn't work any longer.

Maybe Joe is monitoring and can have a brief look at his autolotw-program.

 

Just FYI...

Jerry,

What OS are you running and where did you install DXBase 2007?  Mine is 
installed under Vista at the root level C:\DXBase2007 and the file you are 
missing is located in that folder.  If you installed in C:\Program Files 
with UAC turned on it may have been put someplace else, like the Virtual 
Store path.

I see that there is a Refdata.zip file in the files section of the Yahoo
group.  This is dated 14 September 2014.  

 

What does this update compared to earlier files and how do I apply it?  Is
it as simple as copying into the DXbase installation directory, overwriting
the existing file?

I helped Jim by running my AutoPrefix Updater program against his

Also - FYI - the Refdata file Jim saw at the Yahoo Groups website
was from 2012 --- too old..

That refdata.mdb is over 2 years old...it is Sept 14, 2012.  I wouldn't use it.

I could post my refdata.mdb which is likely up to date.  However there no perfect refdata file, each of is is likely to have different individual calls often corresponding to specific stations we have worked.  Maybe Joe, WA6AXE, will give us his recommendation as to if the existing old version should be replaced with Joe's likely up to date file.  Otherwise i can post mine.

Hi Ron,

No - the Refdata.mdb file holds TOO MUCH info that each user
puts in (such as MGR ADDRESSES, etc) ... That is why I never
post ONLY my Refdata,mdb file ... 

The BEST way for anyone to update their Refdata to the most
current is to use my AutoPrefix Updater .. My program does not
update the tables that are like the MGR ADDRESSES, etc .. 

The most uptodate version of my AutoPrefix Updater can be found at:

Also - FYI - the Refdata file Jim saw at the Yahoo Groups website
was from 2012 --- too old..

I agree!  Ill delete that file from the Yahoo Group as it is not useful and far out of date as well.

If anyone has a corrupted refdata.mdb file they should ask on the forum and they will get help....

Hi Ron,

No - the Refdata.mdb file holds TOO MUCH info that each user
puts in (such as MGR ADDRESSES, etc) ... That is why I never
post ONLY my Refdata,mdb file ... 

The BEST way for anyone to update their Refdata to the most
current is to use my AutoPrefix Updater .. My program does not
update the tables that are like the MGR ADDRESSES, etc .. 

The most uptodate version of my AutoPrefix Updater can be found at:

Hi Neal and all

I downloaded the installation file yesterday ()Thanks Joe) and I have some problems please can you help

I am now running new PC with windows 7 32 bit

Downloaded the info regarding Help files and although it starts the menu and I can select a topic it displays ?There was a problem running the macro (1037)

The ICON on the desktop has a shield on it   - Is it because program is Not validated ?  My windows is validated OK

I cannot get my Rig to load frequency in the log column, although I can get the CW to work from the keyboard.  I downloaded the latest radio file off the dxbase group file list. Is there another file update?

Im running a Yaesu FTDX5000MP and also can you give me the setup for RTS CTS etc.

The windows 8 interface was developed primarily with  touch-screen users in mind. My son has a Microsoft Surface Pro and he says that Windows 8 is very nice with the touch screen, but definitely would not like it on a typical mouse-driven desktop. He isn't the only one: I have heard little good said about it for regular, mouse oriented users, though I have heard that Windows 8.1 is better. 

In appearance the user interface for Windows 7 is much more like Windows XP (and can be made to look almost exactly like XP), which is replaces. The difference between 32 and 64 bit operating systems lies primarily in the amount of addressable RAM. 32 bits can address only up to about 3 GB (with appropriate extensions). A 64 bit operating system can address far more memory than you can stuff into any PC. The 64 bit operating systems will run 32 bit programs without any problem, but 32 bit programs can themselves only address 2 GB of RAM (~3 GB with appropriate extensions). 64 bit systems are intrinsically no faster than 32 bit systems. For numerical work, 64 bits can carry more significant digits than can 32 bits.

It is

Unzip the file and read the installation guide. Anytime it refers to
Windows 7, you can also include WIn8/8.1 in its instruction.

I click on the registration file and after the dire warning about modifying

However, when I open up DXBase2007 it still says trial version.

Obviously, I did something wrong.

You need to modify your reg file so it is 64 bit compatible

Use notepad to open the registration file that you have for 32 bit.


Replace the following line:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Scientific Solutions\Dxb2007]

With the following line:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Scientific Solutions\Dxb2007]


Save changes to a new filename so that you do not erase your
original 32bit registration.

To apply this new registration, double click the .reg filename just as you
wo

Dick (W1KSZ),

I had a similar problem loading the radio frequency when I first migrated to
Windows 7.  

It turns out that I needed to configure the port, close the program, and
then re-launch it.  Once I re-opened the program it started working.

Also, check your configuration.  I had to set RTS = High.  

Good luck,

Fred  WX1S

The windows 8 interface was developed primarily with  touch-screen users in
mind. My son has a Microsoft Surface Pro and he says that Windows 8 is very
nice with the touch screen, but definitely would not like it on a typical
mouse-driven desktop. He isn't the only one: I have heard little good said
about it for regular, mouse oriented users, though I have heard that Windows
8.1 is better. 

In appearance the user interface for Windows 7 is much more like Windows XP
(and can be made to look almost exactly like XP), which is replaces. The
difference between 32 and 64 bit operating systems lies primarily in the
amount of addressable RAM. 32 bits can address only up to about 3 GB (with
appropriate extensions). A 64 bit operating system can address far more
memory than you can stuff into any PC. The 64 bit operating systems will run
32 bit programs without any problem, but 32 bit programs can themselves only
address 2 GB of RAM (~3 GB with appropriate extensions). 64 bit systems are
intrinsically no faster than 32 bit systems. For numerical work, 64 bits can
carry more significant digits than can 32 bits.

How does DXBase play with any of these ? I would like to install Windows 8,
but only if it works.

Just a heads-up about a callsign that are in the AMBIGUOUS category for Prefixes ...
 
 
//TO0X// TANGO OSCAR ZERO XRAY
 
 Just saw that the callsign TO0X from MAYOTTE (FH) in the CQ World
 Wide SSB DX contest.. This callsign will default to France (F) because 
 of the Alias Map table mapping.
 
 This callsign is not currently MAPPED in the CALLMAP table -- so, if you want,
 simply make a dummy QSO with this callsign and change the PREFIX column
 of your logbook mdb file to FH and then when the pop-up asks you if you want
 to save this TO0X mapped to FH -- say YES/OK ---- Then delete that dummy QSO ..
 
 The CALLMAP table will now be updated in advance so that if you work this
 station -- it will have the correct PREFIX in your logbook QSO window ...

Good Morning

 

The boxes in the Summary widow are all empty.  I remember having this
problem years ago and it was due to the w9nga.mdb data file being corrupted.
I have gone back thru the last two years of reflector info and cannot seem
to fine the method I used last time this happened.  I have tried replacing
the refdat.mdb file with no success.

 

HELP

 to France (F) because of the Alias Map table mapping.

According to the RSGBIOTA website IOTA Ref AN-014 has been
withdrawn/deleted ... Here are their words:


BerknerIsland, the sole qualifying island of AN-014, has been on the IOTA listsince the very start of the IOTA Programme. It was regularly shown onmaps as a large island, albeit covered with a layer of very thick ice,separating the Ronne Ice Shelf from the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf. Somecontacts were made by LU1ZX from the old General Belgrano III Base onthe island more than 30 years ago ? no more than a handful are creditedon the IOTA database. The remote possibility of a second operation thatmight be mounted at huge expense has caused IOTA Management to reviewthe retention of Berkner Island on the list. In recent years there havebeen authentic reports from the scientific community that Berkner Islandis an ice-rise and that no part of the land-mass under it would beabove water if there were no ice. This seems to have gathered credencewith map-makers as the considered view of the scientific community.Faced with information that confirms that the ice-rise does not meetIOTA?s qualification rules as a valid island IOTA Management have takenthe decision to withdraw AN-014 from the IOTA list with immediate effectbefore any further operation takes place. The few existing credits willbe withdrawn no later than 1 January 2015.

I think there must be two import programs.  The import file listed in the DXB folder need a  ?Source Data Type?.  I don?t think that is the import routine I need.  Still need some help.

Have you closed the QSL Info window?  Unless the QSL Info window is open,
the Summary window will not update when you receive cluster spots or click
on any of your logged qsos.

Don,

It sounds like your are trying to use the Non-DXBase import utility which 
does ask you for the "Source Data Type".  This not the one you want.  In the 
DXBase Program Group select DXBase File Import.  This will ask you to 
identify which version of DXB was used to create the mdb before beginning 
the import.

Gary AL9A

Good Morning Neal



I think there must be two import programs.  The import file listed in the 
DXB folder need a  ?Source Data Type?.  I don?t think that is the import 
routine I need.  Still need some help.

Create a new database, then, with the DXB Import program, import your old 
database into the new one. Then, open the new one in DXB, reinitialize the 
tables and you should be on your way!

Hi Gary

Joe sent me the following, which solved my problem.  I am wondering where you found the file that worked.  I only have one in my DXBase fikder, which called for the type of file.

Crazy Stuff


Thanks Gary





You need to find the   DXB Import (which is the filename of
ugdxbase.exe) ---

You are using an older version of dxb2007, the current version provides
naming in the start menu items to properly guide you to the right program.

Message-ID: <20544597.3355442.1414597104560.JavaMail.root@vznit170132>

Just a heads-up about a callsign that is in the AMBIGUOUS category for Prefixes ...
 
 
// K1N //
 
 Just saw that the callsign K1N will be used from Navassa Island (KP1) during the
 month of January 2015. This callsign will default to United States (K) because 
 of the Alias Map table mapping.
 
 This callsign is not currently MAPPED in the CALLMAP table -- so, if you want,
 simply make a dummy QSO with this callsign and change the PREFIX column
 of your logbook mdb file to KP1 and then when the pop-up asks you if you want
 to save this K1N mapped to KP1 -- say YES/OK ---- Then delete that dummy QSO ..
 
 The CALLMAP table will now be updated in advance so that if you work this
 station -- it will have the correct PREFIX in your logbook QSO window ...

Recently two DXbase users gave me a heads-up on the

callsign MA0XAU .. (Scotland - GM)




ClubLog maps this MA0 prefix to Scotland .. and doing

a search of the Spots for MA0 - they show Scotland also..




So, since this callsign produces NO Prefix - if you log

it right now ...




You can setup the MA0 prefix to now log as GM by:




Go to Main Menu Tools/ Database Access/ Country prefixes...




When the window comes up -- go to the Alias Map TAB and

scrolldown to the bottom of that tables -- enter the following:




Map Prefix MA0 

Pri Prefix GM




Next - save this entry by putting your mouse curser into the

next (Blank) row.

Subject: [Dxbase] Modifying indexes?
Message-ID: <7d537.5538c59e.418435a9@aol.com>

When initializing, I'm getting lots of " ! " boxes  saying I have duplicate 
data, this occurs during the WPX initializing in the  sequence of storing 
the data and only during the WPX portion. To continue, I  must click OK for 
what seems like a few thousand or more boxes to get past that  issue. It 
advises I should modify the "index" to accept duplicate data OR remove  that 
index. Either would be acceptable as I don't chase WPX but I don't  find any 
instructions in the help files that cover modifying or  removing "indexes."
 
How does one do that (modify an index)?
 
Thanks.

Hi Joe

Thanks for your constant support of DXbase, keeping us all straight!

That whole area of M* of callsigns is a mess in the default DXbase data 
base.  It dates back to when Jack was running DXbase and I think he was 
given some bad advice by someone as many of the UK calls (G*, M*, 2*) were 
very wrongly mapped.  I wrote to him about it way back but nothing happened. 
I guess living in UK my information didn't count :-)

Once you have added MA0 if you look in the body of the "Alias mapping" tab

MA5 maps to GI - WRONG, its GM

MA6 maps to GD - WRONG, Its GM

MA7 maps to GJ - WRONG, its GM

MA8 maps to GU - Wrong, its GM

MA1 is missing, should be GM

GA also maps to G - WRONG, its GM

(a "9" in any UK prefix (G9, M9) for ham radio has never existed)

ALL MA (and GA, 2A)  prefixes are in SCOTLAND (GM, MM, 2M).  Alba is an 
ancient name for Scotland and this year 2014 is the "homecoming year", hence 
the special call for Scottish residents only

The whole mess is repeated in MB*

Hopefully the "new" DXbase will use the Clublog database for callsign 
mapping

Joe,

What is the correct way to map R1ANT? According to Club Log

R1ANT maps by prefix to EUROPEAN RUSSIA ADIF 54 [UA].

With this exception ANTARCTICA, from 2010-01-23 00:00:00  to  2010-12-11 23:59:59.

This explains why I cant hear him when I point my antenna south.

Do you trust the Clublog database more than DXBases? Its a serious
question, I can make it so we periodically import the database and use it,
but when I did it the first time there were more than a few "disagreements"
with its settings. I enthusiastically support Clublog, they seem to be the
only people working on "getting it right" but just wanted your opinion!

Hi Neal

Yes absolutely!

I know the people involved personally and very well, and all they want is perfection.  I have been a user since it was launched and have used it to ?clean up? my DXbase logs

I have been pretty proactive with my DXbase databases along with Joe?s input to keep them as up to date as possible

I have been back entering my old paper logs going back to 1978 at the moment.  In fact there is an old bug in DXbase as when you import old logs from ADIF it never checks the start/end date windows in its own files for old calls as the data is imported and maps everything as if it were ?today?.  Pushing that back to Clublog then gets me a few pages of errors in call mapping.  I use that to manually clean up DXbase, but when I look many of the mappings are actually there, but not used during an ADIF import.

My method is

Type into Fast Log Entry to make an ADIF

Import to DXbase

Export from DXbase again in ADIF

Load to Clublog (and LOTW)

Manually enter corrections and exceptions in DXbase

Very, very occasionally (like 1 in 3000 QSOs, which is a typical UK paper log book) if find a call which is not mapped in CL but I have written notes in my log about the QSO.  Then I email Alan to have a look into it.

No problem, you are the one doing all the hard work

I had an email form someone else about MB

MB is a VERY rarely used prefix and, like GB, could be anywhere in UK (G GI GU GJ GW GM or G)

I would say delete all the MB mappings and worry if one is ever active

Just a heads-up about a callsign that are in the AMBIGUOUS category for Prefixes ...
 
 
// TO4R // 
 
 Just saw that the callsign TO4R from Guadeloupe (NA-102) will be active 2-16 November. 
 This callsign will default to France (F) because of the Alias Map table mapping.
 
 This callsign is not currently MAPPED in the CALLMAP table -- so, if you want,
 simply make a dummy QSO with this callsign and change the PREFIX column
 of your logbook mdb file to FG and then when the pop-up asks you if you want
 to save this TO4R mapped to FG -- say YES/OK ---- Then delete that dummy QSO ..
 
 The CALLMAP table will now be updated in advance so that if you work this
 station -- it will have the correct PREFIX in your logbook QSO window ...

I have also had a lot of disagreements with Clublog. Think I rather trust
DXBase.

Fred

Do you trust the Clublog database more than DXBases? Its a serious question,
I can make it so we periodically import the database and use it, but when I
did it the first time there were more than a few "disagreements"
with its settings. I enthusiastically support Clublog, they seem to be the
only people working on "getting it right" but just wanted your opinion!
