[Dx4win] DX4WIN Digest, Vol 240, Issue 2

Sat Apr 20 22:34:16 EDT 2024

I want to say thanks for all the help.
I finally have it figure out on how to change .DXL files
to .ADI files.
I needed to get that done so I could upload to LOTW and
get credit for my DX contacts.
I looked in the help files and tried but did not find it.
Thanks to the other users who contacte me and helped out.
It is nice to have friends who know how to do these things.

Now to figure out how to filter DX only for the DX Marathon.
Another task to figure out before December.
