By "Some way to load the call from the Summary window to the QSO log." do you mean from the Spots tab of the DX Info window? The Summary window doesn't show calls unless you have already worked and logged them. To log calls from the Spots showing in the DX Info window just put the cursor on the call you want and right click. Take the first item in the list box that opens, "Log current entry" and the info will be automatically placed on the last row of your log.
