I like to keep a record of changes that I make to my setup. (New radio, = antenna, new ham license class, you know that sort of stuff.) In the = past with hand written logs I would put my notes in the logs. When I = asked Jack about it a couple years ago he suggest that I use my = callsign, which is what I have been doing. Now with LoTW here I don't = really want to send my log showing that I contacted myself so was please = to see that DXBase has a Station Notepad and I was going to transfer the = information in the log over to that, but there is one major problem. = Station Notepad opens either Notepad or Wordpad to do your editing with. = Unfortuantely these programs are so old that if I want to save the = station notes in the default directory for DXB those two programs can't = seem to make it past the space between "Program" and "Files". Sort of = throws a monkey wrench into the works. It appears THE only way it would = work would be if you put DXBase in a totally different folder than the = default calls for.
Anybody got any clue where I could keep a file like this? I guess I = could build it in Word and make it a .DOC file. It is just a shame that = the "Station Notepad" is somewhat useless. Of course I guess you could = have a separate directory off the root just to hold this one file, but = it seems such a waste. 73s Bob --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html The reason this message is shown is because the post was in HTML or had an attachment.
