Just to clarify...

When I import my WSJT-X ADIF file (log), and DX4WIN prompts for
"Options for duplicate QSOs", I choose "Imported QSO is ignored."
This means that any FT8 QSOs I have already imported into DX4WIN from
that log will be ignored - only the new ones will be imported.

Two improvements were made for DX4WIN 9.01:

1.  DX4WIN 9.01 remembers the duplicate QSO selection for the next import.

2.  DX4WIN 9.01 has an 'X' in the upper-right corner of the
Import/Export filters window,
    which makes it easier to exit than using File | Exit (one click
instead of two).

Also, if DX4WIN has trouble finding your WSJT-X log, by default it is
located in this directory:

    %localappdata%\WSJT-X

I typically type in the %localappdata% part then double-click on the
WSJT-X directory icon when it appears.

DX4WIN will remember the last import location, so if the last thing
you did was import a WSJT-X log, you should already be in the correct
directory to import it again with new QSOs.
