Hi Eike,
Thank you for your explanation, and you certainly have nothing to
apologize for in this context!
The simple fact of the matter is that my logging software, DXtreme
(www.dxtreme.com), imports and converts your .csv file into a Micro$oft
.mdb file, however it truncates the data and does not import several of
the important columns into its database.
I'm ashamed to admit, I was not aware of this fact until this incident
occurred. Armed with this knowledge, I will most certainly compare
against your original .csv in cases where doubt may exist from this day
forward. I have also sent a somewhat blistering email to the software
company, asking that the program be corrected in the next release to
actually include all fields.

Hi Al and all,
take care when reading the csv file, it does include many inactive
entries for a reason. The last three entries of each line give a clue
if and when the entry is active:
- If the first of the three is a "6", the entry was/is/will be active
for the dates specified, e.g.:
6;3010;1911
means "active from 30 October til 19 November of the current season,
inactive on other dates" (cancelled txion, changed frequency, ...)
This is useful when you check your logs on a later date when the
transmission has already been cancelled and deleted from the
up-to-date databases.
- If the first of the three is an "8", the entry is INACTIVE until
further notice. This is used for domestic stations that might come
back at random, or for some wooden entries when I don't know which of
them actually will be used. When the station is clearly IDed to be on
the air, then I just change the 8 to a 0 to make the entry active.
Entries such marked as inactive are not copied into the bc and freq
files, which are generated from the csv file with a date filter.
These and more codes are explained in the readme.txt.
Sorry for the confusion!
73,
Eike
