Which brings up an interesting experience I just had with ADIFMASTER. 
It's a really useful tool for looking at and editing ADIF files, but 
I found that after I did an edit and saved the modified file the new 
file would crash AD1C's ADIF2DXQ program. After about an hour of hair 
pulling I looked closely at the modified file and found that it had 
converted all the decimal points in the frequency field values to 
European standard commas. This blew the software's mind. The fix was 
easy; I just did a global search and replace in WordPad to change the 
commas back to periods.

A word to the wise.
