Jeff,

My guess is that your contest program is not following the ADIF standard
when exporting.  If there were a field in your ADIF for power per the ADIF
specs, DXbase would use it.  Ditto on the question someone posed about state
appearing in the QTH field.  The ADIF standard provides a field for State
and DXbase will use it if it is provided in accordance with the ADIF
standard.  The resolution for both issues is to get a updated ADIF compliant
patch from your contest software maker.  Or, edit the .adi file before
performing an import and fix up the .adi file with the correct fields.
Regards,
Courtney
