[TRLog] Interface to Kenwood TS870 SOLVED!

[Gilbert Baron]

Following up, does anyone know where the data is stored before going to
log.dat so that you don't lose the 5 qsos in the window in the event of
a power failure? I have floppy frequency set to 1. Does that affect
this? It is unclear but I think it only refers to the floppy write and
not the main log.
