I back all the files in my DX4WIN 'Save' directory up to an external
Compact Flash card. I sure many of you have bought a digital
cameral with 8 Meg, 16 Meg cards of some type that you have
immediately replaced with a 128, 256 or 512 Meg card. What to do
with the 8/16 Meg. Get a card reader/writer for less than $10. Save
your 'save' dir plus your DX4WIN 'key' to this card and you have a
backup your computer or virus can't wipe out. I would not be able
to reconstruct 80,000 plus QSO's back into DX4WIN and many of
you have many more...Plus, makes it easy to transport to another
computer.
