Hi,

I have just posted version 4.3.5b3 which fixes the horizontal white  
lines that some were seeing in the 2D medium resolution map.

Subject: [DogParkList] MacLoggerDX VFO sliders sluggish
Message-ID: <D37B06AB-D742-4F56-BDB7-9342A7711733@dogparksoftware.com>

This is sort of buried in the manual section on preferences so I  
thought I should post it...

Some have found the VFO or the Band Panel sliders response to be  
sluggish with the default value of 33.0 ms (I have changed the default  
to 0 ms. for the next release).

The Delay Text Edit Box determines the delay in milliseconds between  
command bytes sent to the radio.
If too long a delay is used the VFO Slider may become sluggish and  
unresponsive.
If too short a delay is used, the Radio may lock up from not being  
able to process the command in time.
The default is 33. The TS-50 can make do with a 4 ms. delay, but the  
FT-1000 likes a 33 ms. delay and most Icoms are happy with 0.

Hi Radhammes,

I have forwarded your interesting comments on ke4yzn's eHam review of  
MacLoggerDX to the MacLoggerDX list.

If the program has fallen as far behind as you seem to think, it is  
probably best that I discontinue it and leave the task to younger and  
smarter minds.

While it is true that the countless updates since version 3.5 may seem  
minor in nature they were all FREE.

I should also point out that two of the very serious bugs reported in  
KE3YZN's eHam review were in error and are not faults in the program  
but a failure to read the manual...

  1) You CAN choose amongst free Internet Lookup, HamCall and QRZ  
Online services with one popup in the Station Info Dialog.

  2) The DXCluster "Clack" is very easy to silence and the solution to  
that one has been in the FAQ for over a year.

At this point MacLoggerDX has over 50 reviews and an average eHam  
reviewer score of 4.9.
N1MM logger, the hands-down favorite for contesters based on a show-of- 
hands
response at Contest University last year also has over 50 reviews and  
a score of 4.9.
That's a nice place to be on a scale of 1-5.

I believe that's about as good as it gets. At some point, when you've  
got the product
in enough people's hands, somebody is going to give it a 4 or even a 3  
-- maybe
for goofy reasons -- but they'll do it nonetheless.

We are all looking forward to Don's rewrite. I'm guessing Don is looking
forward to Don's rewrite being done! But, in the mean time, it doesn't
matter how many stars KE4YZN thought the program deserved; it matters
how many stars YOU believe the program deserves as it runs in your shack
(or on your DXpedition, etc.).

I, too, have lots of wishes for the next generation logger Don produces.
(Maybe I should dump those off to you in a private message, eh Don?)
But, it doesn't cloud my judgement for how well the current one  
performs,
or how rock solid it has been over the last five years and all those  
many QSOs.

My 2-cents.

I can't agree more with Scott. MLDX is a fantastic piece of software  
and I can't tell you how many times I have shown hams
visiting the shack and they are just blown away by the design and  
functionality. I continue to use and love MLDX and looking forward to  
what the future brings in new releases.

Brush it off Don, your doing the right thing.

There won't be - it's not VHF logger and I have never claimed that it  
was.

The awards tab is there to take care of that, also the DXCC count in  
the Log Panel.

More importantly there are several forms of alert when a new DXCC  
comes in that you haven't already worked.

The QSLS and QSLR flags take care of that.

You can do that! you can sort by any field - ascending or descending -  
Again - it's in the manual.

Turn the radio on or turn the MacLoggerDX VFO check box off.

Thousands of bugs, enhancements and new drivers added (All of them  
FREE since v3.5) - that's not "pretty much the same" to me as I was  
the one working on it 24/7. I tried to keep the UI consistent so that  
people wouldn't have to learn a new UI every few months.

I could care less about your 3 out of 5 rating. What makes me want to  
throw in the towel is your dismissive and uninformed heading: "Needs a  
face lift" and the incredible amount of misinformation that you packed  
into one review.

You are perfectly entitled to your opinions no matter how misinformed  
and inaccurate they are.

By your own admission - you are more interested in VHF logging and  
MacLogger isn't a VHF logging program - it also won't make coffe or  
send your suits out to the cleaners.

Well it is not going to be custom designed for you - you couldn't  
afford that kind of design work.

How can you say that - you clearly didn't read it ?

You didn't even bother - you didn't even read the manual - you just  
slagged it off in a public review that will be read by Hams all over  
the world for years to come.

It's an obvious popup for pete's sake ! no one else has had that  
problem - the call book options are linked-to from the top page !

> How do you feel about the 10 points above?

I feel that they are your personal wish list and have little in common  
with the requests I normally get.

It should be obvious that if I get the same request from 10 people I  
tend to take it more seriously than a request I get from one person  
who rather than email me and ask me directly writes a negative public  
review.

You can't be serious ?

It has lots of competition - that is something else you didn't know.  
Check out http://www.machamradio.com/ - there are 2 or 3 other Mac Ham  
radio logging programs and I really wish you would check them out.

Randall, I really appreciate your correcting the review...

MacLoggerDX is far from perfect and I welcome constructive criticism.  
It has been user input more than anything that has driven  
MacLoggerDX's development.

Many of the more recent requests have been impossible to entertain for  
the older Carbon framework but rest assured that they are all being  
considered for the Cocoa rewrite which I hope to complete before I'm  
too old to enjoy it :)

Thanks again.

You may also want to put the total QSO database into a FileMaker or  
AppleWorks database.

I agree with all of that - MLDX has died-in-the-wool PC users gapping  
at the 3D map (and the 2D map) and wondering if they should switch  
platforms. All the other features have the same affect.
I don't know what I'd do if MLDX was no longer around. I considered  
the cost extremely reasonable when I first purchased it. Having now  
had the benefit of 4 years use and unbelievable service from Don, I  
consider the cost to be tantamount to 'free'!

I fully expect Don to charge for an upgrade to the cocoa version of  
MLDX. I for one will be waiting at the head of the line - credit card  
in hand, forcing it into Don's hand and saying "I don't care, just  
sell me the software"!

Some people wonder why people like me would pay the total cost of my  
K3, up front, 3 days after announcement and then wait 8 months before  
I got the rig (and I only just got the sub-receiver this week, still  
waiting for the Voice Recorder and not complaining).

I put Dog Park Software in the same league as Elecraft and have faith  
in both companies and their founders.
That faith extends to supporting them when required.

Don, I'm sure by now, enough of us have extended our grateful thanks  
to you for the superb job you do of maintaining MLDX and adding  
features as required (I have in mind the great, extremely fast, work  
you did to support the K3 for one thing), that you KNOW your work is  
much appreciated. Let me just add my name to that list.

BTW, I'm always surprised at how Apple Mail manages to pick a suitable  
'random' signature!

-- 
Don?t complain. Nobody will understand. Or care. And certainly don?t try
to fix the situation yourself. It?s dangerous. Leave it to a highly
untrained, unqualified, expendable professional.

Message-ID: <594e7e20808130847j46850681t76508db80e8b6d6a@mail.gmail.com>

I am finding that in my set up of an Omni VII and a using audio from the
computer in jack on the microKeyer I can get audio fed to the front panel
mic jack fine but am unable to get my foot pedal to key the radio.
If I go to Windows I can set the Keyer up with "CCC" and it works fine but
"CCC" is not one of the drop down choices in MLDX.

I have looked through MLDX's documentation but haven't figured out how to
add "CCC" to the drop down list.

Anyone know how to do it?

TIA,

I've updated both MacLogger and Cocoamodem recently.  Since then  
Cocoamodem is no longer able to use a CI-V TX/RX command through  
MacLogger.   Currently I am not setup to use DTR or CTS keying.

I have an Icom 756ProIII.   The MacLogger/Cocoamodem combination has

Any ideas??

A HAM I know, Jochen DK8ZM, is a keen collector of Scout Radio badges

collects radio ephemera will understand the upset this will have  
caused. I would like to politely request everyone to keep an eye out  
and if you hear of any unusual or large numbers of JOTA or radio  
scouting badges appearing then please do let him know (or me and I'll  
pass the message on).

Further to that mail, he sent:

Hi Mike,

Don't have my icom hooked up at the moment, but it is working to a  
Kenwood TS-2000.  I am using version v 4.3.4 of MacLoggerDX and .55 of  
CocoaModem.

I am assuming you have radio control using MacLoggerDX?  IE. you can  
change freq. and read freq. from your ProIIIusing Macloggerdx???  In  
MacLoggerDX if you press the Keyers button do you have "soft" only  
checked? What do you have checked?

In Cocoamodem you have to select "MacLoggerDX" in EACH of individual  
modes config (RTTY, WIdeband RTTY, DUAL RTTY, PSK etc...). You may  
need to set each of these again depending what version you updated  
from as there were quite a few changes to prefs in latest version.  I  
think you will find it still works once you go through each the prefs  
for each digital mode.

A little more information would help. Is everything else working but  
ptt?

Subject: [DogParkList] MacLoggerDX 4.3.5 released
Message-ID: <2F501ED9-835C-4C15-B34B-5457D01C97F8@dogparksoftware.com>

MacLoggerDX 4.3.5 released

Dog Park Software is pleased to announce that version 4.3.5 of  
MacLoggerDX has been released and can be downloaded from:

<http://dogparksoftware.com/MacLoggerDX.html>

What's New in this version:

- Fixed intermittent Clear QSL jpg crash on Intel iMacs.
- Fix for 2D medium resolution map.
- Better 2D Map label ageing and display.
- Fixed ADIF Import for LogWIndow 3.0.7
- Demo version saves preferences.

---------------------------------------------------------

MacLoggerDX logs into your favorite Telnet or TNC DXCluster and as DX  
Spots are received, tunes your radio to the spot, looks up the call  
and displays the DX station on the real time grey line Map with  
distance and bearing from your station.

If you decide to work the station, MacLoggerDX is ready to instantly  
add the QSO and your Radio's VFO information to your log and can swing  
your beam around to work the station Direct or Long Path. MacLoggerDX  
supports ADIF Import/Export which is fully compatible with eQSL.cc and  
the ARRL LoTW.

MacLoggerDX looks up calls on the Internet, the new QRZ or HamCall  
Online premium services, in QRZ CD Roms, on MapQuest, it's internal  
zipcode database, Dxpedition database, the ARRL country and DX lists,  
your Log Book and your User Call Book. MacLoggerDX's internal  
databases are regularly updated instantly over the Internet.

With a single key stroke you can see where this QSO is operating from  
- right down to the street level using MapQuest, Google Maps or Google  
Earth.

Not sure of the call you just heard ? K5ZD Super Check Partial  
Database Files are there to help you out as you enter a partial call.

In the background MacLoggerDX can tune your rig to a pre-arranged  
schedule or scan list - interrupting the program if something of  
interest pops up on the DXCluster.

MacLoggerDX automatically tracks DXCC, IOTA, WAS, VUCC and CQ WAZ  
(Worked All Zones) Awards and will even use Mail.app or Eudora to  
Email you if that rare DX location pops up on the DX Clusters. It has  
a Bands Display panel which tracks activity by HF Ham Band and lets  
you quickly tune to the action using a separate VFO slider for each  
band - as well as VFO Stacking registers for quick recall of  
interesting frequencies.

MacLoggerDX can monitor, decode, lookup and plot APRS packets from  
APRSServe on the Internet or a connected TNC. You can use the TNC  
panel to communicate with any serial TNC to monitor and decode APRS  
traffic, DXCluster Spots or to work any of the digital modes supported  
by the TNC. See stations pop up on the map in real time as they  
digipeat APRS packets over the International Space Station.

MacLoggerDX features popup selection of multiple logs, searching and  
sorting based on any log field, automatic one-click generation of eQSL  
Cards, fast and easy printing of logs, envelopes, QSL Cards and bulk  
address labels, unlimited user-customizeable memories, Drag and Drop  
Scan List with adjustable delay, UTC scheduled events that  
automatically switch between summer, winter, weekend and weekday  
schedules, an integrated CW keyer (OS X) and drivers for over 70  
popular Amateur Radio Transceivers and SWL Receivers as well as multi- 
radio quick-select preferences for switching quickly and easily  
between multiple rigs.

MacLoggerDX can also sync your rig with the NCDXF/IARU Propagation  
Beacon Network for empirical propagation status displayed in real-time  
on the world map.

MacLoggerDX is fully integrated with MacDopplerPRO X for logging of  
satellite QSO's and with Apple's OS X Address Book for quick adds of  
lookup data.

I've just switched to v4.3.5 of MLDX and noticed that quite often,  
when it's trying to 'Auto Tune' my K3 to the latest spot on the  
cluster, it switches the K3 to FM mode - most often it doesn't recover  
back to the correct mode.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Resend of this - even after it has tuned, a few seconds later, my K3  
switches from USB to FM.
Definitely MLDX, since if I disconnect the RS232, it doesn't do it.

There were no changes to the K3 driver in v4.3.5 (added in 4.3.3) ,  
was the K3 working OK before ?

What is your Delay set to ? A debug log might help diagnose this.
What USB/Serial adapter and driver ?

Sorry, 1000 emails in my inbox and I tend to be brief!
I currently use microHAM DIGI KEYER to control my K3 from MacLoggerDX.
I want to try using WKUSB Winkey to send Ultimatic from my paddles.
The DigiKeyer does not have a built-in Winkey like a lot of the other  
controllers.
So in order to use the keyer pane of MLDX and my paddles, I'd need to  
use something like WKUSB, but to control the K3, I'd need the Digi  
Keyer too.

is anyone here using MLDX and a K3 and doing auto-tune in the  
DXCluster panel?

If so, please send me your baud rate and delay and K3 firmware version.

I'm having a problem where MLDX changes the frequency, but if that  
means a band change and the mode of the K3 on the new band is not  
correct, it doesn't get changed. A double-click of the DXcluster entry  
then changes mode.
If the band doesn't change, the mode gets set correctly and if the  
band does change, but the mode is correct, its ok too.

Don says he's sending a mode change, then the frequency and then a  
mode change again, but it doesn't appear to help.

I'm using MLDX 4.3.6b5 and 2.23 f/w in K3.
baud rate is 38400 and delay is 2ms.
