Subject: Log problems with RTTY

I used the old version 5 WF1B program.  Boy, did I screw up!  The log only 
had a capacity of 1000Qs.  When I filled the log I had to start another one 
and couldn't invoke the writelog command!  All I got was an error message 
stating that I have to restart another new log.  In addition, I outsmarted 
myself on the DX contacts by entering the DX prefix as well as the serial 
number.  When I generated the .cbr file it had the prefix but no serial 
number!  The only way to recover the serial number is from the .all log.

My questions:

1. Are you familiar with WF1B and can you use the .bin file to generate a 
.all file or do something to allow me to use the .bin file from the program 
to generate the post contest files?

2. If you can't do the above, how can I contact Ray to see if he can do 
something to salvage my log?

73 Arnie
