[Dx4win] SyncBack_DX4WIN_BACKUPS

George,

I'm afraid I might have mis-marketed SyncBack when I talked about its 
benefits here on the reflector. SyncBack is a great backup program for doing 
daily (or less frequent) backups, but it is NOT the right tool for mirroring 
two drives in real-time or at short intervals. There are some software 
programs out there that will do this -- as well as some hardware-only 
solutions -- but I don't use them and have no recommendations.

I simply back-up my DX4WIN \SAVE directory daily, and my entire collection 
of \HAM RADIO programs weekly. I figure that's good enough for me... stuff 
doesn't change that often here!

Anyone have an idea of how to use SyncBack the free backup program to backup 
DX4WIN logging files at 2 or 3 min intervals to my Kingston512MB USB flash 
drive???
I just can't make SyncBack work and I don't know what DX4WIN file changes as 
the upper part of DX4WIN screen says in red, "MODIFIED (count down 
numbers)", to black, "Modified", to backup on a regular basis.
Anyone, help.
Thanks.
George
