Version 3.0 of the Cabrillo to CT conversion program was released on
1 November 2006.  Both versions 2.1 and 2.2 have problems with Daylight
Savings Time. Don't use them!  You can download the program from:

    http://software.ad1c.us/#Cabrillo

Notable changes (see the web page for more detailed information):

*  The program extracts the contest information from the Cabrillo
   header (it no longer uses the CT.CFG file). It only writes one
   address line in the CT log, based on the first ADDRESS field
   encountered in the Cabrillo file. This is because it's too hard
   to try to parse foreign addresses into Town, State, ZIP Code and
   Country fields.

*  This program runs either under DOS or in an MS-DOS (command)
   window under Windows.

Known limitations:

*  Cabrillo v3 isn't supported yet, but will be added.

*  The program has only been tested on a small sample of logs. If
   there is a problem, or another contest you want supported, let me
   know!
