Don't you just love it when a standard is defined and developers are just to lazy to implement it.

> I have been converting Writelog contest logs to ADIF within Writelog, and

> discloses that State info is listed in the WL ADIF under <QTH:2> and that
> DX4WIN does not import that information.

> DX4WIN's HELP file states:
> 
> ADIF is a specification of a file exchange format between various logging
> programs. A number of fields are missing from the ADIF standard, most
> notably fields related to the tracking of various awards.
> 
> The only option for this filter is the inclusion of the frequency field;
> when the filter frequency is disabled, the frequency field will be added to
> the 'notes for this QSO'.

> It would be useful to import State data from such contests as SS, NA Sprint,
> etc. Short of entering each QSO's State manually, is there a viable
> method--such as renaming a column in the ADIF---in DX4WIN to accomplish
> this?
