But Doug, unless you have DXView open you will not see an azimuth in the
Logging or Capture windows

Pete,
I do agree that if all the modules are open then it does take up some
screen real estate. But of course that is easily solved with a 2nd
monitor.
Fortunately they all don't have to be open or even installed. If you
only want rig control and logging then you just install/open those 2
apps.

I have tried twice to make the transition to DXLab. I agree with
Doug that the support is incredible, but each time I returned to
DX4WIN, frustrated with my inability to make DXLab work for me.
DXLab is too complex, too "all things to all people", and takes up
too darned much screen space when providing me the minimum
information I want. For example, to know the azimuth to a station
that you want to call, you have to have an additional component of
the suite open, beyond the log. To receive a spot, know the azimuth,
and log a station you must have 4 components open (including the
DXLab Launcher, SpotCollector, DXKeeper and DXView).
While there a few things I would like changed in DX4WIN, the support
provided by AD1C and others is superb. If and when KK4HD stops
updating DX4WIN, I'll look around again, but I doubt I'll go back to
DXL:ab unless there is a massive change in philosophy.

The support is incredible! Take a look at the forum on Yahoo Groups:

Take a look at DXLab Suite which does every thing you want and is
free.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] General Purpose logging program
I’m looking for a new General Purpose logging program, Windows OS.
Doesn’t need to be free, but need good author support.
The following are “off my list” for various reasons --- Logger32,
CommCat, and HRD.
User interface should be simple/straightforward.
Program must work with my rig (FTDX-5000), keep track of basic
awards like DXCC, WAZ, etc.
Must interface with QRZ and LoTW. Must do ADIF import of logs from
other programs.
Beyond that, not looking for bloated elegance.
Suggestions?
