What is TEXT to ADIF Converter?

TEXT to ADIF Converter

TEXT to ADIF Converter is a handy tool for amateur radio enthusiasts who need to convert text files into ADIF format. This is especially useful for those who participate in contests, as it helps prepare the necessary log files by processing all your log data easily.

Understanding ADIF Format

If you're into HAM radio, you probably know about the ADIF file format. It's essential for recording all the details of your radio transmissions. But here’s the catch: not every logging tool can save your transmission details in this format, which means conversion is often a must!

Why Use TEXT to ADIF Converter?

This program makes it simple to convert text logs by pulling out just the right information needed for contests. What sets it apart from other tools is that you can choose exactly what details you want to keep by selecting specific ranges of information. It works great with different log types and structures that have fixed column widths!

Selecting Your Data

When you load your file into the converter, it displays everything so you can pick and choose what goes into your ADIF log. You only need to select some basic info like QSO, date, mode, and frequency—easy peasy!

Handling Bad Records

A cool feature of this converter is its ability to spot bad records automatically and save them in a separate file. This way, you avoid any errors while reading through your logs! Just a heads up though: the documentation doesn’t clearly explain which fields are marked as valid or bad.

User-Friendly Interface

The interface is super easy to navigate. You can even add constant fields like operator names or comments without any hassle. One little drawback? It doesn't allow saving range configurations for converting similar files later on.
