Hello Tony and group,
OK but how to change the date? It is calculated automatically by
EbLaunch, we cannot edit it in the program.
I edited the original raw text file to reverse the day and month.
The date displays opposite in EbLaunch but the start offset is still
calculated wrong.
I have no idea how to fix this.
73,
Paul N1BUG
