AW: [Dx4win] Differing ADIF formats

[Pete Smith]

I think I understand.  In the drop-down there is a list of fields, 
presumably those that DX4WIN understands/exports/imports.  Am I right to 
assume that Note 1 Note 2 Note 3 are separate imports and all would be 
stored in the Notes for QSO field.  That could be very handy.

73, Pete
