[Dx4win] Dx4Win Call Sign Alert

[Jim]

Thanks. The membership list is a great solution. I had built a list of needed IOTA calls but the CallSign Alert fill-in just couldn't hold them all. (I extract the calls from Tedd Mirgliotta's Ohio/Penn List, compare it to the DX4WIN IOTA Listing Worked, and pull out the needed exceptions.)

Yes, there is a limit unfortunately.

My solution is to keep my primary alerts in a separate text file in
the SAVE directory.  Use Notepad to create the listk one callsign per
line.  Right-click on the DX Spots window and select "Membership List"
near the bottom. Put the '@' (at-sign) character in the Id field.
Click on "Add to members list", navigate to your text file, and open
it. Then click on OK.

This list does not count against the 61 characters in the field, so
you can add and remove temporary calls there, as long as you don't
exceed that limit.
