[Dx4win] eQSL import question

[Claes "Mel" Carneheim]

The example was wrong

Before:
<CALL:5>SM0JT<QSO_DATE:8:D>20110712<TIME_ON:4>0846<BAND:3>40M<MODE:3>SSB<RST_SENT:2>59<RST_RCVD:0><QSL_SENT:1>Y<QSL_SENT_VIA:1>E<APP_EQSL_AG:1>Y<GRIDSQUARE:6>JO89UI<EOR>

After:
<CALL:5>SM0JT<QSO_DATE:8:D>20110712<TIME_ON:4>0846<BAND:3>40M<MODE:3>SSB<RST_SENT:2>59<RST_RCVD:0><QSL_SENT:1>Y<QSL_SENT_VIA:1>E<APP_EQSL_AG:1>Y<xGRIDSQUARE:6>JO89UI<EOR>
