[DXBase] Exporting DXbase 2002 log to ADIF

2002年2月18日 22:50:21 -0500

Charles, 
I posted this to someone else off the list but the additional info 
may be of interest to some: 
 
 I think Cosme may be simply assuming ... because the European 
 format causes the frequency in the ADIF file to be expressed in 
 MHz in a way the DXbase ADIF routine is expecting. 
 Even then it may only work because DXbase makes some assumptions ... 
 1) DXbase stores the frequency internally in KHz (American format - 
 period as the decimal symbol) 
 2) DXbase's ADIF import expects the frequency to be in MHz (per 
 ADIF standard) in American format (period as the decimal symbol)
 3) DXbase does not seem to respect (observe) Regional Settings
I have played with Cosme's program some more this evening and found one 
interesting thing ... It does not export the fraction of KHz digits no 
matter how one configures the Regional Settings! 
Perhaps Cosme and Jack should discuss the assumptions each is making. 
73,
