Usage:

Fldigi-DXLabs Gateway is a bridging application for use with the 
Digital Modes application Fldigi by Dave Freese W1HKJ and the 
DXLabs suite by Dave Bernstein AA6YQ. 

Fldigi-DXLabs Gateway works with the following DXLabs applications.

 - DXKeeper - QSO's logged in Fldigi will transfer to DXKeeper
   when the Save QSO Button is pressed. Ability to lookup previous 
   contacts with the callsign entered in Fldigi's callsign field.

 - Commander - Frequency and Mode information is transferred to 
   Fldigi automatically to act as Fldigi's Rig Control.

 - DXView - Callsigns entered into Fldigi's callsign field will 
   trigger a lookup in DXView using the callsings information.

 - Spotcollector - When Fldigi-DXLabs Gateway is set in SpotCollector 
   to be the Digital Mode Application, Clicking on Spots in 
   SpotCollector will send the spot information to the gateway for 
   setting the correct mode and frequency in Fldigi.




Setup:
------

Start the Gateway before starting DXKeeper, Commander, or SpotCollector.

The first time the Gateway is run it will ask you to enter the full 
path to where Fldigi.exe is located on your computer. This is needed 
as the gateway will load Fldigi automatically on start-up. There are 
special parameters that Fldigi needs to be loaded with in order for 
it to comunicate with the gateway and the DXLabs applications.

See the Gateway's online documentation for detailed setup
instructions for interoperation with DXKeeper, Commander, and DXView.
