The frequency field in the QSO log must be entered in Khz, example 14195.00
The frequency field for ADIF must be in Mhz, 14.19500 Therefore, except for the cases where you entered the wrong format in the QSO log, everything you show looks perfect.

To answer the request for the type of radio it is a FT 1000D and a FT 897. In the examples below some of the frequencies were entered by hand and one via the program interface from the radio. When I bring up the program the frequency is displayed as XX.XX or XXXXX.XX. Record 1 appears to be entered as 28500.00(as displayed on the screen) by me. This is unlikely I would have entered 28.5 or 28.50 at best. Record 2 appears to have been entered as 28.60 (as displayed on the screen), which is also unlikely. I would have most likely have entered it as 28.6. Record 4(populated automatically via the program interface) is displayed as 1828.95 in the program interface. Record 4 is exported as 1.82895 in the ADIF file. I imported this database from dxbase 2003 into 2004 recently. I am at a total loss as to explain how 28.5 or 28.50 would suddenly appear as 28500.00. I am not sure how it appeared in 2003, I never bothered to check. I am going to look for an ADIF export from 2003 to see if it appears as I think it was entered. The problem appears to be how this variable is declared and formatted. It would be my assumption no matter how the number is entered it should not change. Anyone know how the program treats this? And conversely how the export utility treats this? I suppose source code is out of the question? I would like to figure out why my database is acting different than others. It appears as though some have had the same experience so this is not unique.
