Bob,
You answered my question with your references to the built-in functions.
Cheers,

The Win-Test and CT file formats are not compatible, but it's easy to load old logs with Win-Test since Win-Test reads (and writes) Cabrillo files.  And in theory you can use the cbr2ct program to convert Cabrillo files back into CT format.  See



http://software.ad1c.us/Cabrillo_to_CT/index.htm

But, what CT utilities do you need?  The functions of many CT utilities like fix_mine, merge, trunc_bin, chk_ten, ct2adif, etc. are already built in to Win-Test itself.

I doubt it. N6TV may know if there are converters from Win-Test to CT

and back.
