Hi Tom
Just back from another fb trip to the Summer Isles and reading through the
mail.  I heard you going great guns in the contest but I could not get going
with 80w to the vertical.  Conditions were not too good and strange up north
with so much short skip but the occassional Q5 DX station coming through
kept  matters interesting.
 There is a great program by DL9HO which I have used many times for log
conversions. The webpage is http://www.qsl.net/dl9ho/english.html
and if you email DL9HO@QSL.NET with the problem he may be interested in
adding this conversion to the program features.  It's worth a try then I can
convert my log too!
