[Dx4win] Ver 8.01 issues

[Jim Reisert AD1C]

Regarding name, etc.

If you read the on-line help, you'll see that DX4WIN looks for:

  <name> in <QTH>

MFSK is not a real mode.  Neither is PSK.  PSK was removed from this
release, QSOs should automatically convert to PSK31.

Since that's from an import, Paul can (hopefully) fix this.  I can
modify my "qsxfix" program to deal with this.

I'm curious about the Satellite QSOs.  What export/import format did
you use?  Would you be willing to send me the file you tried to import
(please ZIP it first)?
