As the QSL manager for the NK7U contest station I maintain a DX4WIN log of over 130,00 QSO's. I keep a copy of the log and DX4WIN at my QTH and NK7U does as well at his. Since the last time we sync'd the log file up NK7U and I have both added QSOs to the log as well as added QSL confirmations for

I've been a DX4WIN user since Version 6 days. I use DX4WIN to manage my K7ZO and YN5Z QSOs and also those of NK7U -- and his database is 330,000+ QSOs. But, thinking it might be time to move on. DX4WIN 8.05 is coming up on 4 years old this coming January. Has anyone out there looked at Log4OM

[Dx4win] DX4WIN Status -- Observations

2015-10-06 Thread (K7ZO) Scott Tuthill
First -- to answer AD1C's question I believe 8.05 was released in January 2011. Before that 8.02 was released in September 2009, 8.03 in December 2009, and 8.04 in May 2010. Second -- to echo other similar comments I am a very long time user of DX4WIN, since the late '90s. The fact is DX4WIN
