ALL:
Reading the HELP FILES for WSJT-X:
The log file wsjtx_log.adi is updated whenever you log a QSO fromWSJT-X. (Keep in mind that if you erase this file you will lose all“worked before” information.) You can append or overwrite thewsjtx_log.adi file by exporting your QSO history as an ADIF filefrom another logging program. Turning Show DXCC entity and workedbefore status off and then on again will cause WSJT-X to re-readthe log file. Very large log files may cause WSJT-X to slow downwhen searching for calls.
Since George is SPOT-ON .. The only thing that I can say is -
if you want the "worked before" feature to work - then DO NOT USE my BRIDGE!!
If you do not use my BRIDGE and allow the wsjtx_log.adi file to
gather ALL of the QSOs - then when you are ready to IMPORT
(manually) the adi file into DXbase2007 - Be sure to checkmark the
"Load if not worked" option - that way you will not try to create DUPE
QSOs.
Tnx George!!!

Joe, Eric and others
I run Win 7 with Signal Link and the Bridge did run OK...
However, I must have both DXBase and WSJT-X running before starting the Bridge.
I discovered that the Bridge does "remove" wsjtx_log.adi and any attempt by me to recover it causes a flash in the file list as the new file is "removed" somewhere???
So, as a consequence of no adif log file, WSJT-X cannot see prior QSOs etc which caused me several duplicates on the bands yesterday.
A windows file search cannot located any file named wsjtx_log.adi in my system. So I don't know how the Bridge works but that particular log file is "gone".
Maybe this is more confusion Joe... but I hope it helps you.
73, George W1ZT

GM Joe,
I'm using also a Microham but the DIGI KEYER 1. And you know that your
bridge is working very well here. Phil, ON5PV, is using a SignaLink. And
your bridge is also working by him.
The only thing I can say is that when I'm using your bridge, there is no
wsjtx_log.adi created. When I'm using only the WSJT_X program without
your bridge, the log adif is present. Strange or not ?
So, it's maybe not the microham but something others.
That's my piece of cake.
