I re-ran the sweeps again and this time the new data files work fine with HFANT. Gawd, I love computers!

Thanks for the tip, Dan. Unfortunately, I can't get the HFANT utility to accept the data from the HFTASweep files. I get either complaints about improper antenna name format or invalid character in field. I've done considerable fooling around with the data files and can't figure out what the problem is. I can copy the new data and paste it over the data in one of the sample files and it gives me an error, but doesn't directly say where it is. I haven't taken the time to check all 32,760 entries in the data file to see what (possibly non-printing) character is causing the upset. It sure would be nice if I could find a spec for the exact data table format, but no luck there looking through the documentation. Guess I'm stuck with Excel.
