[Dxbase] Qso Forwarding into DXBase 2007

Thu Mar 17 00:36:24 EDT 2011

Does anyone have experience in the following that could point me in the
correct direction please? And does DXBase 2007 support the UDP protocol?
When I follow the link below from HRD/DM780 it takes me to Neal’s web site.
But I find nothing about DXBase SDK. I assume this link is from before Neal.
I find no reference in the DXBase help files.
Tnx,
Joe WL7E/W7
*DXbase*
DXbase accepts new logbook entries from programs such as DM780. The
information is documented in the DXbase SDK,
http://www.dxbase.com/Dxbsdk.txt.
· DXbase must be running for records to be passed correctly.
DXbase adds the date and time automatically; it does not use values from
DM780.
*UDP Forwarding*
Select this option to forward new logbook entries to 3rd party programs
using the UDP protocol. This option is still experimental; only select it if
the logbook program you are using supports this option. The record is sent
using multibyte (non-UNICODE) text. The new logbook entry is sent in ADIF
format, prefixed with ADD. An example of a record is:
*ADD* <call:5>G6CNQ <qso_date:8:d>20070628 <time_on:6>180839 <band:3>20m
<mode:5>PSK31 <rst_sent:4>599 <a_index:1>5 <comment:8>Fine guy <cont:2>EU
<cqz:2>14 <dxcc:3>223 <freq:9>14.070000 <gridsquare:6>JO01go <ituz:2>27

On Crouch <rst_rcvd:4>599 <sfi:2>73 <time_off:6>180854
<app_hamradiodeluxe_country:7:s>England <EOR>
In addition ADIF records are sent while the user is filling in fields in the
*Add *pane of the *Add Logbook Entry *window. These records are used by
contest logbooks such as N1MM.
To see the messages as they are sent select the *Log file *window (from the
*View *menu) and enable *Debug *(click the yellow Warning icon).
