Just getting started in trying to work POTA stations and have a question about having JTDX (my version v2.2.0-rc155) specifically watch for a wanted callsign. I've looked about the forum and my documentation and the setting windows and can find nothing...
Wondering about the DX Call window or any other place I can plug in a specific call...running JTalert (2.60.5) but it's very difficult to watch the Band Activity scroll on JTDX to pick out a specific call (which I got from the POTA website) especially when the band is very busy.
Thanks

Ah Jeez...please excuse the previous post....I just discovered the 'Wanted Callsigns windows in JTAlert...sometimes I feel really lost when I ask a question and the answer is found a couple minutes later...not enough patience at my age I guess...

Your JTDX is pretty old, sourceforge.net/projects/jtdx/files/jtdx_2.2.159/select your platform and install over the old one. There is absolutely no requirement to un-install, JTDX 159 will use your previous settings in any case. 73's de OE1MWW Wolfgang |

Ah, ya know Wolfgang...did it again...I hit the first download on the page you have me and got the zip file...after I sent the last message I looked farther and drilled down to the windoze 64 bit file and dowloaded and just started it up..looks like it kept all my old settings...:0) :0)
Except something is messed up.../JTAlert isn't showing any callsigns...like the TCP is incorrect...I tried both 2237 and 2247 and neither works and I can't turn on the Eqsl link..plenty of decodes showing though...(sitting here shaking head)...
So I have 2.2.159 and JTAlert 2.60.5 .....
Regards
Ron

Finally got it all working..I think...anyway I"m getting callsigns and even though they aren't all I"m seeing the decode window I think I'll just let it alone..so I don't screw something up again...
SO I'm still messing with POTA...eligible for an award but can't download it...another forum to sign up for.. :0)
