[Dx4win] LOTW Support

[Bud Semon N7CW]

  <<Snip>>

Since we all have opinions, I guess I will put mine out there.

I like the LoTW interface.  I have a significant number of logs from
different locations in my master DX4Win log and each has to be treated
differently by TQSL.  So an automatic upload doesn't make sense to me.  The
number of "clicks" is so small now as to be trivial.

The easy ability to handle logs from different locations and to generate
reports that either combine or ignore those locations is also a plus.  A
number of years ago, I looked at the DXLab Suite and there was no way to
handle this issue - perhaps it has changed now.  But when I politely
queried the author about a way to handle my problem, I received a very
short, very curt reply - Not now and Not ever.  That ended any chance of my
switching to his software.

My occasional "off the record" inquiries to other ops about the DXLab Suite
have resulted in comments similar to what Dave, N4QS wrote.  I know there
are a number of folks that swear by it.  It's great that we have so many
choices and I really hope that Paul continues to support it, even at the
level he is supporting it now.

I understand all of the requests made by Lou, N2TU (although I don't agree
they are all enhancements) except the handling of CW Skimmer.  Can someone
explain to me what that is about?

And lastly, along with the other comments,  I have to say a huge THANK YOU
 to Jim for all his support over the years.

73, Bud  N7CW
