Hi All,

?

Kimberly and I have three quick announcements:

?

We have uploaded an updated country list to for the recent country changes. You'll find the link to the list under the Country Files heading below the links to each contest. Complete details for the update and download instructions are included on the web page.

?

Daylight savings time concludes this weekend. Our software checks your UTC offset on startup and recommends a change if needed. Since it only checks on startup, if you operate (or leave the program running) through the time change, you will have to remember to change the offset manually when standard time begins.

?

I haven't tried this myself, but another suggestion that came from the users group is to set your UTC offset to zero and use the Casablanca time zone setting in Windows (which is always UTC). To change your time zone setting:

?

- Double click the clock on your task bar

- Click the Time Zone tab on the form that appears

- Scroll down until you find Casablanca and select it

?

If you have attempted to download and convert the Canadian call data directly recently, you know that AC Log would hang. This occurred because the file format for the RAC data has been modified. I have updated the .exe file to accommodate the new?RAC data?format. To download the patch:

?

- Close AC Log 3.0

?

- Click this link to download the new .exe file:

?

?

- Save the file in the working directory of the program (default is c:\program files\aclog 3.0.)

?

The fall contesting season is always an exciting time and lots of fun!? As always, thanks for your kind thoughts and spreading the word about our software.? We really appreciate it!

?

Please let us know if you have any questions.
