[TRLog] TR and LOGic5

Hi list

I am evaluating LOGic5 and am impressed with its capabilities, 
particularly its synergy with TRX manager.

The prog. purports to import TR files, but I find that it 
requires the actual  contest type to be specified, of which 
there are only a few. I have imported a CQ WW format log without 
difficulty, but e.g. GENERAL QSO results in an error message, 
and many others are not supported.

Seeing that ADIF is supported I thought that worth checking, but 
when I tried to convert GENERAL QSO to ADIF in Logconv, it  
bombed. Once again CQ WW was successful, but this is a small, 
part of the requirement.

I don't require anything fancy from a TR import, simply the raw 
QSO ( call, date, time, band, mode) but I just can't seem to 
manage this for anything apart from the major contest formats.

I presently import to my current logging prog. ( Stationmaster) 
by employing some witchcraft with Quattro Pro and  Paradox, but 
would like a simpler life!

Advice appreciated.
