Mine was set at 10 in the scenario described, but would have had to have been
lengthened if I'd gone over 3000 ( as you did of course). Think I'll make a
copy of the file, add some dummy QSOs say <9, kill the power, and see if they
might be saved as a .jou file; that would be interesting, although mebbe
scary!
