Pawel, F9 gives me C:\DXTELNET\DXT2WL\
That is the original location of the program.
Is that a good location to use?
You said C:\DXT2WL\
I tried the general DX log and it does not seem to work.
Is there some test I can do to check it out?
The standard telnet works OK but DxTelnet give more
freedom.
I only tested it using port 80. I like that one better.
