I was afraid of that. I got in too big a hurry and reopened log I was using. Looks like I lost those QSO .

Twice in the past couple of weeks I have to crashes, for lack of a better
word. I was logging during School Club Roundup and moved the mouse and the
main data entry window closed. I didn't remember when the last time I saved
but when I went to file and reopened the log I was missing a bunch of QSOs.



The same thing happened today while logging NPOTA from TR23 unit. Sitting in
the backseat of my car is a bit cramped. Same kind of thing happened. I
moved the mouse and the data entry window closed. This time when I reopened
I had lost 30-35 QSO, almost 45 minutes' worth.



What does Auto save every 2 minutes do if I can't recover the lost QSOs.
What is the ,~XL file?
