This will work, but it is not the best way.  If you have defined any
groups or filter selections in your logbook, you will lose them using
this method.

Here is another way:

1.  Save your current log (with the duplicates) to a new name ( File | Save as )
2.  Open that new log file ( File | Open )
3.  In the QSO window, QSO | Multiple QSO Operations | Delete QSOs

Then you can continue with:

Finally, save the new log with the imported QSOs.

Once you are satisfied that this is the log you want to keep, you can
save it using the original name, by overwriting the old log file (File
| Save as)
