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.
