[CQ-Contest] ADIF conversion file

[N2TK]

Tnx for the info. What I am trying to do is export my db file from DXBase
5.0 for DOS and import it to a windows logging program. The problem with the
ADIF conversion program I have is that it does not include the mapped
country along with the QSO. What this means is that when I import into
another program, the new program will make certain assumptions of where to
map the country. As an example, the call sign, KP2A, was used at KP1, KP2
and KP5. Will the import map this to just KP2? How will it know where to map
it too other than checking it's country file which most likely will set it
up for KP2.
One program company told me they can import the mapped prefix if it is in
the ADIF file.
Is there a version of ADIF or other conversion program that will allow me to
export my DXBase 5.0 for DOS log file into an ADIF file including the mapped
countries?
LogConv won't take a DXBase DBV file.

I use the excellent LogConv program by KA5WSS.

The ADIF files created by LogConv import without
any problems into my DXBase for DOS database.
(Currently at about 78,000 records for K4RO...)
DXBase derives all of its country info based on
the callsign prefix, as interpreted by the DXBase
Prefix Database.

You can get LogConv at:
