V7.02(demo). Have some questions.  Please excuse my ignorance.

1) Can't minimize PSK window.  Is that possible?  What PSK and RTTY 
windows active and minimized at same time.  RTTY is run through TNC -- 
not MMTTY.  Thus both can be active simultaneously.
2) Tried changing time on a logged QSO, it won't let me.  Can change any 
other field.
3) Tried importing my 105K QSO file via ADIF import.  Ended up with over 
4000 exceptions. DXCC totals per band and per mode totals didn't match 
by a lot.  Trying to resolve and fix these differences seems like an 
impossible task.  Having notes of the difference associated with each 
QSO instead on in a file doesn't help.  Any suggestions?
4) Any way to SH/DX rather than bringing up the PACKET screen?  Was 
hoping command lines would be available on spot display screen.
5) Any way to get a blank background rather than all the WINDOW's ICON's 
showing through? 
6) No field for NAME in QSO screen.  Guess one of the notes fields will 
have to do.
7) Going to have to look through the filters section stuff a lot.  I 
really want the capability to search through the logbook file setting 
particular defined bands, modes and frequencies and generate a screen or 
file of the QSO's that match.  I suppose that is possible.  Don't 
quickly see how.
8) Any way to easily edit the country library within DX4WIN to quickly 
fix things like K6H is Hawaii rather than US?  Sure one can change it 
for a particular QSO but how about the fix working for subsequent ones?
9) Any way to define a wanted rig filter default per mode for the 
IC-706iig?  Now one automatically gets the wide filter for all modes.
10) What is update policy?  I see costs associated in going from one 
version to another but nothing mentioned about within version updates.

Before spending $90, I'm interested in resolving some of the above.
