Hi, John.

I have been using DX4WIN since V2.  It has been four-and-a-half years 
since V8 was released and three years since it was last updated.  Last 
year at this time I told myself I would give Paul one more year to 
provide us with some meaningful updates or I would move on to an 
actively-maintained program like DXLAB.  Using DX4WIN is second nature 
to me and the learning curve for a program like DXLAB will be fairly 
high, but at least DXLAB is moving forward, not stagnating.

I downloaded DXLAB last night (as you know it is free) and so the 
journey begins....

Thanks for the memories, Paul, and all the support, Jim.

Dick
