[Dx4win] Ideas for development

[David Kozinn, K2DBK]

I'm trying to understand the issue. Let's say I work you at some point on 20M CW, then I work you again in a contest again on 20M CW. I import the ADIF file, are you saying that you should get a warning that I've worked you before? I don't understand why that would be a problem. Like many of us, this happens all the time.

If you're talking about preventing a truly duplicate QSO from being imported (same band, mode, and time), that's what the "Imported QSO is ignored" setting is for on the Options for duplicate QSOs dialog when importing. 

I use this all the time because for FT-8, I just feed it my whole log every time I import and it ignores the duplicate.

Hi Dan
Re garding dupes, I do not mean during a contest (every contest program will do that) but for the general log.
Example
I have run a specific contest program, and have exported to an adif file. I need to import this file into DX4Win. This is where each imported QSO should be compared to the global log and show someting when itis a dupe (same band  and same mode)

> #1 - For a specific time period (like a contest), turn on contest mode (QSO - Contest Mode).  Make sure to check off contest mode.  I think it now resets when you exit when it used to stay on until you unchecked.  It will then let you know of dupes and give a serial number.  Works nice for casual contest efforts.
