That's not correct - and you know it well! There was a 2. Ham at begin.

And you was DX4WIN dealer in EU - your deep related to DX4WIN. In my
eyes you always talk more for Paul them for us Ham's

AND we all should not forget: without Jim AD1Cand his great support -
DX4WIN will not exist !  TNX Jim

I am pretty sure that the original team was more than just Paul;  it is possible that he doesn't have the capability for major upgrades ?

So I just downloaded it to my tablet, and scored DX4WIN.    He scored Logger32 as 75%;  I scored DX4WIN as 70%,  so maybe there are no great gains to be had ? Needs looking at later.
