Hello
When using DXLog for a DXpedition, the duplicate QSO is mentioned, like
for a contest log.
DX4Win import the power field to the Notes for this QSO. This is wrong.
We must change the name of the filed to comment so it is imported to the
right box.
Why ?

ADIF says this:
"COMMENT: comment field for QSO
recommended use: information of interest to the contacted station's operator
<https://www.adif.org/312/ADIF_312.htm#QSO_Field_CALL>"
That doesn't say anything about whether this is a per-QSO or a per-QTH flag.
Consequently, exporting this flag as a COMMENT and assuming that it's going
to be treated one way or the other isn't a valid assumption. DXKeeper
happens to get it right for this specific usage; it would be wrong for
others.
There's no way to express "This contact is a duplicate" in ADIF.
Duplicate QSOs are a contest issue, and don't matter for most logging
programs. If a contest program wants to export their "duplicate QSO" flag,
they can't redefine the COMMENT field to meet their requirements.
Export that information as an APP_ tag, or propose a new tag.

Other loggers, such as DXKeeper, on the other hand, do it right.
Can you define "right" here?
What are the name of the fields in DXKeeper to do it "right"?
DXKeeper is a much newer program than DX4WIN and I guess that there are
some extra fields in DXKeeper that DX4WIN does not have.
