[Dx4win] LoTW exports

[Donald Eriksen]

I did export from dx4win into a file (not WriteLog)using the ADIF exchange
format, the first export option. However the Writelog logs were imported
originally INTO dx4win using the WriteLog ADIF export, apparently there's
something I don't understand about that process. I think dx4win is doing the
right thing.
Perhaps I'll have to query the WriteLog reflector and see if anyone is
getting the same results, I know a lot of them are using dx4win.
