Paul,

I have seen a number of messages requesting this feature, but no response
from you.  What say?

No, it requires data from the CDROM. No matter what lookup system
you're using, if the Callsign/Mgr Lookup (F3) window is open, typing
ENTER in that window (when it has focus) will do a QRZ.COM lookup,
assuming DX4WIN is configured properly (see the QRZ application note I
wrote at http://dx4win.ad1c.us)

I have asked Paul several times to add QRZ.COM lookup via the XML
interface (for subscribers), which could replace the local callbook
lookup (i.e. a single F3 would do the lookup and populate the
Callsign/Mgr Lookup window, no ENTER needed).  Maybe if enough people
ask for this, it may happen some day.
