Hello-
I recently upgraded from v4.07 to 9.0.2.1134.
It has some changed behavior and I'd like to get some help.
Mostly I am a contester. For contesting, I use N1MM+ logger.
After the contest, I export the log in ADIF from N1MM+ and import it to
DX4WIN.
I am interested in certain awards like the DX Challenge, where I can
only qualify for the award if I am actually the operator for the
contact, not just the callsign holder.
So previously, with v4.07, before I import the ADIF file, I would edit
it, changing the tag 'OPERATOR' to 'COMMENT'.
This made the operator callsign appear in the 'Notes for this QSO' field
in DX4WIN. I could then use group numbers to separate QSOs I actually
made from QSOs made by other operators.
When I attempt this in v9, the call sign now appears in 'Notes for this
Call' field. Furthermore, when I do a filter looking for my call, it
logically ORs the data in that field.
I believe the root of the problem is that v9 now imports 'COMMENT' into
'Notes for this CALL', when it used to import to 'Notes for this QSO'.
Is there a way to change this?
Alternately, is there another ADIF tag that would direct the data to the
'Notes for this QSO' field, which is not OR'd by a search?
This change was made somewhere between v4.07 and v9 - so it may not be
unique to v9.
Thanks,
-Tony, K1KP
