[Dxbase] Error/Warnings When Importing From Log Windows ADIF File

[Tony - KD4K]

You need to load your .adi file into WordPad and do a search/replace and
search for
<BAND:4>432M

And replace all of them with
<BAND:4>70CM

Then do a search/replace for
<BAND:4>222M

And replace all of them with
<BAND:5>1.25M

This is because 222M and 432M are not legal ADIF bands
This is really easily done when WordPad finds the first one the just click
on replace ALL
And in the blink of an eye they will all be changed. Save the .adi file and
then import it.
It should work fine now.

Subject: [Dxbase] Error/Warnings When Importing From Log Windows ADIF File

I hope the answer is obvious to someone.  I am struggling with finding the
answer.  Any help appreciated.
I am new to DXBase so there is much to learn.
I created an ADIF from Log Windows 4.
When attempting to import into DXBase 2007 I am getting errors on all my 222
and 432 contacts.  Examples below.  The band is wrong and the mode is wrong.
Both bands are being read as 2m so I suspect the last digit in the band
field is all that is being interpreted in 222M and 432M.

ERROR:  Band? W1VE 20010121 013100 432000.00 2m  DIGITAL 59 59

The record is as follows.

I am also getting warnings about state being wrong for my Canada and Puerto
Rico stations.  Example below.
