[Dx4win] can DX4WIN export to a cabrillo format

[Larry Gauthier (K8UT)]

Brian,

Not all Cabrillos are created equal. With the recent emergence of Cabrillo
v3.0, about 1/3 of contest sponsors now require v3.0, whereas the remainder
still use submissions based on the v2.x format. Implementing a Cabrillo
export would not be one-time-and-done effort.

My vote is for Paul to devote his time to making DX4Win the best DX logging
program out there, and leave contesting to others.

They are not asking for a "contest" style program that would require 
constant changes due to rule changes ect...

They are asking for a way to export a file in Cabrillo format. True this is 
generally used in contests, However I don't believe this would require 
updates like you say. This could be a one time change could it not?

I'm for exporting a Cabrillo file directly from DX4WIN...

My 2 cents...

Nope... Paul should not waste time on Contest features because they
equire constant attention to changes. Even casual contesters should
onsider a free contest program, they are so much better suited. I use
1MM. It gets pretty involved if you want to use all the features... but
ou don't need all the features for causal operating like I'm doing in
he 160 contest this weekend.

Ofcourse it would be better dx4win has this capability for the casual
contester who will do some qsos...
