Ed,
I believe if you look you will find a "Proposed Changes" section that does
indeed add many more 'modes' to the format.
It also add other bands etc.

The .adi is a living standard and was first created (by Trey??? and others)
to be easily adaptable.
And that is proving to be the case.

I certainly am not an expert but in my conversations with Trey and Ray
(sounds like a comedy team) I got the impression it was the data that was
important, it was the format used to convey whatever was put into it that
demanded standardization.

I've been beta testing LoTW since it's availability. I'm looking forward to
it and so far...DXB has made it easy to convert to LoTW's system.
The only glitch has been the amount of time it takes for my aging computer
to sign a 50K plus log.
That process grabs most of the cpu cycles and I pretty much can't do
anything else while it's running. :-)))
