Bill,

My apologies.  I was under the impression that wsjtx.log was the main
logfile, and that wsjtx_log.adi was for convenience, since WSJT-X proves an
option to deleted the .adi and it operates (pretty much) properly when the
.adi is deleted, showing may CQs in GREEN.

I will attempt what you suggest.

Just for my own information, what is the difference between wsjtx.log and
wsjtx_log.adi?

Many thanks

Lou

Lou,

WSJT-X needs a complete log file to be able to tell you who has been worked
before and what DXCC Entities are new. The wsjtx_log.adi is that file.

If you main logging application doesn't have an option to ignore duplicates
when importing an ADF file then I suggest you ask the
author(s) to consider adding such a feature, other users will appreciate it
too.

I'm not sure what you are asking for here, either you keep a complete
logfile for WSJT-X or you use some other method of detecting worked before
stations. If you are on Windows and use one of the logging applications
supported by JTAlert then that may well be you best solution.
