[Dx4win] Re: Dx4win Digest, Vol 10, Issue 24

[JerryVan]

It is not my intention to participate in a war of words here and I don't
intend to participate in what may be considered 'flaming'.  Life is much
too short and, after all, amateur radio is just a hobby.

But it seems to me that there are many others that also feel that DX4WIN
should fully support CW DXCC.  Not receiving any information from
Rapidan directly or through the reflector stating that I am using the
product incorrectly does, in my opinion, state that they agree that CW
DXCC is not fully supported.  Nor have I received any work arounds that
solve all of the problems.  As I have stated previously, work arounds
should not be the modis operandi for a product like DX4WIN.  Either it
FULLY supports the awards it promises to support or it does not.

Although I am a relatively new DX4WIN user I have the utmost respect for
the product and value it as a very welcome addition to my enjoyment of
our common hobby.  But given 'my' problem with CW DXCC which appears to
be the same problem for others I would encourage Rapidan to bite the
bullet and incorporate the needed changes in the product and with no
work arounds required.

Hello all,

Reviewing previous messages to Jerry, I do not think I ever made a
statement to that effect.
