No problem with the import. However, I hosed up the imported log before it was imported. So, I had to delete each of the QSOs out of the DXBase manually. At least that was the only way I knew how to get rid of them. Only 30, UHF contest. I then corrected the log to be imported and tried to import again but DXBase says it is already there and rejects it. I did this years ago but I can't recall the fix.

They are located in your install directory in a file called Radios.ini. There are currently four different ini files for the IC-7600 with slightly different names that denote how the radio interacts with DXBase with a particular ini file. [ICOM_IC-7600] This is the basic original IC-7600 ini file created by N5IN. [ICOM_IC-7600_DW_ok_SPLT_ok] This is an enhanced ini file created by Joe WA6AXE and N5IN that enables both Dual Watch and Split to work with DXBase. [ICOM_IC-7600_SPLITOK] Another variation of the IC-7600 ini file by WA6AXE that allows the Split frequency to be recorded in the Notes field of DXBase. This is the one I use as my normal ini file. [ICOM_IC-7600_VFO_A_Only] The final variation of IC-7600 ini files by N5IN. Not sure of the purpose of this version, but apparently it only uses VFO A information for logging purposes. All of these ini files should be available to you for selection in Tools/Options/User Options... under the Radio1 and Radio2 tabs. Select ICOM in the Manufacturer box and then in the model box is a list of various Icom radio ini files. The four files referenced above are in that listing. Select which ever one you like and see how it performs. It's been a long time since these came out I don't remember the exact differences between them, so some experimentation may be required depending upon what you are trying to get. Maybe Joe can refresh our memories of what the subtle differences are between these ini files. 73, Gary AL9A -----Original Message----- From: Tom Lewis via Dxbase Sent: August 05, 2015 12:08 PM To: DXBase List Subject: [Dxbase] icom 7600 Would some one send me the INI file for an Icom 7600.

This is a very important window in my method of operations using DXbase. I still cannot find anything that addresses the working of the Internet Cluster Window in the HELP files.? Using the repair utility did not solve this problem. These two columns not being populated seem to be the only problem, yet, I have so far been unable to locate help for this problem in the HELP file. ? Maybe the next thing is to reinstall DXbase.?

I opened up the pdf file with Adobe Acrobat Pro. The font is size 9.75, Times New Roman. I selected a section and changed the font to something else and back to Time New Roman and now the text is readable with out the over lap. But the text takes up more room and the text box got larger. It overlapped the next text box. So I changed the font size to 9 and that looked okay.? I would take a very long time to select each text box and change the font size.
