[Dx4win] A plea for more Multiple QSO Operations

Fri, 22 Feb 2002 15:45:45 -0600

It's easy enough to modify the ADIF file exported from whatever contest
program you are using to include a comment.

The ADIF format specifies <eor> at the end of each record in the ADIF file.
Just use a text editor to do a find and replace on <eor>.

You would set it up to find <eor>

then replace with <comment:23>2002 ARRL CW DX Contest<eor>

Then import the modified ADIF into DX4WIN.  The comment field will place
2002 ARRL CW DX Contest in the Notes For This QSO field.  The number after
comment: is the length of the field.

73,

Alan  N5NA
