[Dx4win] adif import

[Franki ON5ZO]

Marc, I also use both programs and I do this all the time.

Just open your exported ADIF in WordPad or whatever, and do a search and replace 
(ctrl+H)

Replace <EOR> with:
    <comment:xx>here goes your comment><EOR>
where XX = number of characters (including spaces!) in your comment tag.

Be sure to end the comment with <EOR>, as it is the "end of record" tag.
And be sure to preceed the number of characters by a colon (:).

Example:
<comment:25>OO4MA in ARRL DX SSB 2005<EOR>

To get rid frequency; do this: replace <freq    with  <brol

Because "brol" is not a recognised ADIF tag, DX4WIN will skip this and drop the info. 
Note: Flemish users will know what brol is  ;o)

To get rid of QSO numbers, also change <STX and <SRX to <brol

Then import. You will get some zone errors as both programs have a different view on 
CQ zones. Therefore I delete all CQZ tags as well, and let DX4WIN decide. I guess 
this has to do with CTY files, but I am not an expert on CTY matters...

Good luck!
