[Dx4win] Importing and using GOLIST DX Alert Calendar with DX4WIN 6.04

[Paul van der Eijk]

Jim,

Two small additions:

1. In the calendar window, clicking cleanup will delete duplicate entries.
(They may be created when importing schedules on a regular basis)

2. Calendar will pop-up when DX4WIN starts when you select:
File | Preferences | QSO | Check calendar at startup
