[Dx4win] Ver 8.01 issues

[Mel]

Perhaps he could also delimit on "|"... I don't believe I am the only 
one using this convention.

re MFSK ... conversion to MFSK16 should be OK as I don't think MFSK8 is 
used a lot.... not really an issue here as I can change the few QSOS 
involved manually in less time than it took me to complain about it ;-)

I exported in DX4Win ver 6.03 format. I'll send you the file if you like 
Jim.

Maybe you could make your program QSX & Name fix... I already wrote a 
program to do this and it works fine... but it works on the ADIF file. 
If I export/import ADIF I will lose information.

I will send file direct.
