One comment though. Two items in the adf file have to manually edited if you are not using Joe's Autoload program. When you go from QO100 to QO-100 or CAS4A to CAS-4A you are adding an extra character to SAT_NAME and that number also must be changed....or at least that is what I finally found was needed for me to upload CAS-4A and CAS-4B. One other warning. Don't get satellite happy and start adding bird after bird when you go into Database Access/Satellite Names. After about the 14th or 15(?) line, DXbase 2007 gets very unfriendly. If I remember right, it completely locked everything up, requiring a hard reboot....and guess what? All your carefully typed and sorted names go POOF!!! Being somewhat of a slow learner, it happened to me twice. Win XP box in use. YMMV with other Operating Systems.
