[Dx4win] Fwd: WSJT to DX4WIN

Tue Oct 15 22:30:04 EDT 2019

JTAlert will allow you to specify another file name to export o real time (in an easier to find location) but still have to manually import.  I did that for a while too but do not use JTAlert much anymore.

Possibly this can be done in JTAlert. This program will transfer FT8 QSO's to Ham Radio Deluxe and other logging programs.
