[Dxbase] [DxBase] DxBase Desk Top Concept

[Wes N7WS]

I guess I'll add my two cents.

I'm a guy who still prefers the Windows "Classic" look, just so you know where 
I'm coming from.

My biggest annoyance now are things like the Previous QSOs pane _not_ moving 
along if I move the main DXBase window and the stuff inside the Summary pane, 
_not_ resizing when the pane is resized.

I run the program on two computers; one a laptop in the shack and the other a 
desktop in the office where I do my QSLing, LoTW, etc.  In the shack I run a 
second monitor on the desk with the laptop on a shelf above.  DXBase is usually 
running full-screen on the laptop screen, with other stuff like the panadapter, 
AXTTY, etc are in front of me.  If I do want to pull DXBase to the lower 
monitor, the Previous QSOs pane is left behind on the upper monitor.  PITA.

My operational needs are simple; I don't use packet, I can turn my own rotor and 
tune my own radio.  First, I want my logging program to capture the date, time, 
call and frequency of the QSO.  Many programs will do that.  To me the strength 
of DXBase is what I can do after the QSO; the record keeping, statistics, 
QSLing, etc.

As I've suggested before, (without any feedback) if the prefix database was 
separated out and a "master" was maintained at DXBase Headquarters that would be 
a big plus.  Also, if LoTW was seamlessly incorporated into the program and the 
annoyances mentioned above were fixed,  I would delighted.
