Hi-ho,

Just had a look at mine, and looks like the only thing I did was select 'WLNET' as the host in the options screen and it all works, click to tune etc..

I've not set up the alerts etc. though, what's the issue you're having?

Does it say "Trying to Connect to" in the DXCluster window title bar?

This means that you have not selected a DXCluster provider in WLNET, for which you will require an internet connection.
Please explain where you have got to, so we can help further.

Have you been through the instructions here?

http://help.winlog32.co.uk/hlp_dxc_setup.aspx

Pay special attention to this line which is where most get stuck:
WLNET
"...this window will be minimised - you can maximise or normalise it from the bottom windows task bar.... "

If still no go, then please explain further, it's no help when you say you have the "same problem", when original post is not very specific either.

After flailing for two hours with a Win 7 PC, I discovered that Telnet isn't turned on. One must go to the control panel and turn it on in Windows features. I thought for a while I'd have to revert to my XP machine to get the DX cluster to show.
