A definition of a dupe would be good.

Does it mean a dupe like in a contest i.e. a separate contact that has 
been made on the same band but at a different time?

I think that in this case it is a bad idea to remove the dupes from the 
log. The dupe contact might be the only one that is both in your log and 
the other stations log. The first occurence might not be in the other 
stations log at all for some reason (he/she worked somebody else, had a 
computer glitch etc).

On the other hand I have noticed that my log contains some QSOs that are 
separated only by seconds. They have resulted by importing the same log 
twice into another logging sw that I used before DX4Win. This kind of 
contacts I have removed manually which was time consuming.
