[Dxbase] changing opr call

[FireBrick]

This might be easier than you think.
Try this.
Use the Wizard to select qso's between Date you started using W4DQD and ended.
Save it as a .adi file.

Then do the same with your log with your present call.

Using something like Notepad, open the W4DQD.adi file and do a find/replace.

Then start from scratch with the virgin log and using the Non DXB import utility, Import 
this new modified .adi file.

then add the W4RA.adi file
