Depends on which notes field you mean.  In either case, such a global edit
entails exporting the log to DX4WIN6 format, editing the .DXQ (or .DXN) files,
and then importing the resulting file into an empty log (use a different name).

To delete all call notes, export the log, delete the .DXN file, then import the
log again.

To delete all QSO notes, export the log, blank every SECOND line in the .DXQ
file, then import the log again.  Its important to maintain the blank lines
where the data you are removing used to be.
