For the tlf-1.1.x series the line length is always 81 characters, for the 1.2.x always 88 characters (including linefeed). The mentioned comment in src/makelogline.c is actual for the 1.1.x series but misses the 7 characters for your frequency beginning from column 81. You can always safely convert a log file back to 1.1.x version by cutting the last 7 characters from each line: 'cut -b 1-80 newformat.log > oldformat.log' should do the job. One more hint: KEEP BACKUPS BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING DO YOUR LOG BY HAND! 73, de Tom DL1JBE -- "Do what is needful!"
