[Dx4win] DX4WIN not setting LOTW upload flag

[Mel]

You will need to log it as a mode valid in both LotW and DX4Win. Could 
you not log it as JT65? I had the same problem with Olivia until lotw 
updated their parameter file for TQSL. Which BTW, if I may rant a bit, 
is NOT obvious... and even though I have done it a couple of times I 
STILL can't find it again on the site. It's as if they go out of their 
way to be obtuse... no wonder they scare a lot of users off.
