To all eleven hams who responded to my request for help with an .adi file,  I 
want to thank you all.  It is so good to have great group of fellow hams 
willing to assist someone in need of help.  


I especially want to thank Joe Glockner, WA6AXE.   The first response I 
received was from Joe. (Isn't he always the first:)  I have been with DXBase a 
very long time, and as with most of us I have had my share of problems with 
DXBase.  It is such a shame that the ownership of the program doesn't care 
about it.  Or for that matter, he doesn't care much about all the thousands of 
us who have dished out many dollars over the years to own this program.


But,  If you look at the history (evolution) of this program from it's 
beginning, check all the email about problems and solutions, you will find that 
it is not the owner of the program, but one of it's avid users, a man who can 
fix anything that he is allowed access to.  A man who comes close to being 
worshiped by many of the DXBase users and a man so devoted, that he will spend 
whatever time and effort to solve problems.


This man is WA6AXE, Joe Glockner.


I know Joe would not want me to say these things.  But, DAMN IT, he does 
deserve recognition!


Thank you, Joe, for all the many times you have bailed me out of my own, 
sometimes, stupid problems. You have done it graciously.  Never down playing my 
ignorance.  Always making me glad and happy again.


Yes, I am leaving DXBase, at least until such time as someone comes along with 
the desire to give this once great program the TLC it deserves.That's the need 
of the .adi file that started this tyrant of mine.


Thanks for everyone who has taken the time to read this.  If you feel as I do, 
please take the additional time to write something.  If enough of us do this, 
maybe, things will change.  I surely hope so


Ben Akins, KB1FJ
