Before running the test I tried to create a dupe in my log. My created dupe was 
not a 100% dupe so that part of the test did not work. The merge to the newlog 
worked perfect. 

*** Reading 17097 bytes from newlog.adif
*** Read 69 records in 0.00 seconds

*** Reading 17268 bytes from newlog-Nov2011.adif      
*** Read 70 records in 0.00 seconds                    <--- The 70 contained 
one dupe

*** Read 70 records
*** 70 merged records saved in
*** /Users/dkriss/.fldigi/logs/merged_recs.adif

I have deleted the dupe I created and all is back to normal
