[Dx4win] Log Problem

Sat, 23 Feb 2002 08:45:12 -0500

Tnx Duane and all...I have it all figured out..I new there would be a .~xl
file somewhere but was unsure if .~xl would actually have been a backup of
the corrupted file. All is fine and yes I had it on floppy from abt 3 weeks
ago...Just prior to putting in abt 2000 q's worth of RTTY contacts.I just
went thru a shack computer chg. and things were a little confusing.
Thanks agn to all.
