This release - properly handles the scenario where the IOTA database is not installed and the user attempts to generate an IOTA progress report - during a Recompute operation, ensures that the log's progress table is empty before repopulating it (tnx to John VA7PX) - when logging a callsign that begins with !, correctly computes the WPX prefix - when using the Capture window to log a callsign that begins with !, sets the QSO's country code to 0 - doesn't generate an errorlog.txt file entry if there is no default printer paper selection (tnx to Bob W2SR and Paulo CT2IVH) - properly handles the case where clicking a Spot Database Entry would overwrite information in the Capture window and the user chooses to log the information in the Capture window (tnx to Scott KB0FHP) - eliminates unnecessary lookups during startup (tnx to Bud K9ZT) - prevents the generation of an errorlog.txt entry when importing a QSO into an empty log - with the distance unit set to kilometers when importing a QSO that specifies a grid or latitude and longitude but not a distance, properly computes the distance (tnx to Andy DL1AKP) - ensures that Capture window's Call and DXCC labels are visible after correcting an error in these items - works around an overflow error in QSLSetup.eqslInet_StateChanged due to an invalid response from the MSINET control (tnx to John K1ESE) - prevents an errorlog.txt entry generated by DXLogMain.SelectTab - when the user selects in the Capture window a State that contains multiple ARRL sections, clears the Capture window's ARRL section selector unless it specifies a section valid for that State (tnx to Dave W8RIT) - when the user selects in the Capture window a Province that contains multiple ARRL sections, clears the Capture window's ARRL section selector unless it specifies a section valid for that Province (tnx to Dave W8RIT) - when the user selects in the Capture window an ARRL section that covers multiple States, clears the Capture window's State selector unless it specifies a State valid for that ARRL section (tnx to Dave W8RIT) - when the user selects in the Capture window an ARRL section that covers multiple Provinces, clears thes Capture window's Province selector unless it specifies a Province valid for that ARRL section (tnx to Dave W8RIT) - includes Gibraltar in the WAE progress report (tnx to Rich VE3KI) - corrects a defect that can prevent adding QSOs to the QSL Queue (tnx to Dave NX7F) - provides a new "Spot split frequency" option that when enabled includes the split frequency in outgoing spot notes in spots generated by clicking the Capture window's Spot button (tnx to Paul VE1DX) - updates the CaptureItems.htm, Configuration.htm, and Log.htm online documentation files Import Note if you have the "Distance Unit" panel set to Kilometers on the Config window's General tab ====================================================================================================== If you have either imported QSOs from an ADIF file or logged QSOs via another application (WinWarbler, MultiPSK, MMD, DM780, etc.) then you should direct DXKeeper to recompute the Distance item stored with each QSO to correct erroneous distances previously computed by DXKeeper as a result of the now-corrected defect mentioned above. To do this, 1. backup your log (Config window, Log tab, backup button) 2. click the X button in the Filter panel on the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab so that all of your QSOs will be present in the Log Page Display 3. click the Adv button on the Main window's "Log QSOs" tab to open the "Advanced Sorts, Filters, and Modifiers" window; in this window's "Modify QSOs in Log Page Display" panel 3a. set the "Item ADIF field name" selector to DISTANCE 3b. set the "Item new value" textbox to 3c. click the Mod button Distances will only be computed for QSOs that meet all of the following criteria - specify a myQTH that in turn specifies your latitude and longitude (or you've specified a QTH latitude and longitude on the Config window's Default tab) - specify an "Antenna Path" item - specify a Gridsquare or Latitude and Longitude DXKeeper 6.8.9 is available via the DXLab Launcher and via http://www.dxlabsuite.com/download.htm 73, Dave, AA6YQ
