Years ago I used the Callbook CD for US Calls, but today there must be some WW Database that can be used. Possibly a link to QRZ.com ??

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 FY and then when the pop-up asks you if you want to save this TO2BC mapped to FY -- 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 ... 73 Joe WA6AXE Joseph Glockner wa6axe at verizon.net From aj6t at comcast.net Tue Mar 27 12:41:21 2018 From: aj6t at comcast.net (Walter Miller, AJ6T) Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2018 11:41:21 -0500 Subject: [Dxbase] No digital QSOs show in Summary window Message-ID: <76ddff48-f883-4690-af09-d8a19d636e81@comcast.net> Although there are many digital QSOs in my log, none of them show up in the DXBase Summary window.?

You can do the following to RESET the Summary Window and then thereafter you can RESIZE all of the ROWS.. CLOSE DXbase2007.. Go into the DXbase2007 Main Directory and DELETE the following files.. SVIEWHF.HGT and SVIEWHF.WID Now - OPEN DXbase2007 - you will see an error pop-up window. SKIP PAST that .. CLOSE DXbase2007 again .. OPEN DXbase2007 and this time the SUMMARY Window will be Reset -- RESIZE the ROW and the Columns.. 73 JOe wa6axe Joseph Glockner wa6axe at verizon.net -----Original Message----- From: Walter Miller, AJ6T To: Dxbase Sent: Tue, Mar 27, 2018 11:41 am Subject: [Dxbase] No digital QSOs show in Summary window Although there are many digital QSOs in my log, none of them show up in the DXBase Summary window.

After following your instructions I was able to restore the display of digital QSOs in the Summary window.? Part of the magic seemed to be using the Restore Hidden Rows while I was trying to resize the rows in that window.? I always find it difficult to resize and relocate my DXBase windows, but all is in order now.? Thanks very much again for your help. 73, Walt, AJ6T PS: Richard, thank you as well for your response for my plea for help.? I did take a look at my Band Plan Map, and I noted that several bands don't have the digital segments carved out properly.? However, I did not change anything in that mapping, so I don't think that was related to my display problem.? My setup usually has DXBase read the mode and frequency from my K3, and most of my digital QSOs are recorded first in WSJT-X and I upload them into DXBase via ADIF transfer.? Everything seems fine using that process. On 3/27/2018 11:55 AM, Joseph Glockner wrote: > Walt, > > It sounds like your DIGITAL ROW is TOO SMALL ..?
