Bob,
Looking at the file menu options, I think that's the problem. I see an
option for "Comma delimited ASCII," which is what DX4WIN will presumably
take, but I recall having trouble with that last year, and using ADIF
instead.
Regardless, it looks like I was using the wrong menu selections. Next time
I visit the ham shack location, I'll try to do it right. :)
Thanks and 73,
Frank
