[Dxbase] LoTW Download Report

     It looks maybe I'm the only one that's had trouble with the Download Report showing up as a Web page.   On May 7 I did a Download and if my memory is correct LoTW asked me where to send it and for certain it downloaded as a .adi file which DXB2005 imported with no problem.   Since LoTW did the upgrade it no longer does this.  After a lot of time and misery (May 11) I did get it to work but it involves changing and typing in info to get it to import since it winds up as a .adi file inside a .TXT file.   I have the proceedure for handling it as a Web page saved as a text file so it can be done but it's sure not user friendly.  DXbase import is looking for an ADIF file so you have to enter the info there manually also.
       Does anyone remember the download process before ARRL did the upgrade?   I know I didn't go thru this mess on my download on May 7th.   Hopefully ARRL will do something to resolve this thing.   Does anyone know of a method to download as a .adi and send it to the folder where you want it?
