[Dxbase] Logging from Hamscope ver 1.56

Fri Feb 6 13:55:58 EST 2009

Knut,
I am sure Joe is correct in his explanation of the problem.
I am sure glad he chimed in and explained it because I would
Have had a hard time putting it into print.

OK, Tony. I agree about logging from DXBase 2006.
But here hare two issues:
I think that the difference between Hamscope and DXBase numbers doesn't
matter that much. I can live with that.
The other thing is that Hamscope offers a Log it! button. That throws the
callsign and frequency info over to DXbase and logs it there. And that is
where we have the real problem (in my opinion). The frequency figures appear
in a wrong format, compared to what DXBase can accept. I would like to push
the button for instant logging into DXB, but have to edit the additional
zeros and comma in DXB before logging...
So the question is how to transform the frequecy format.
Any idea?
