This turned out to be very easy. When I recorded QSOs I omitted the calls from the RST field, figuring I'd have to add them later (as described below). But I discovered that the ARRL Cabrillo format does not include the station's call (redundant anyway) in the exchange material.

Haven't tried the Cabrillo log on the robot yet, but I think it's OK and only took maybe 15 minutes, exporting from Xlog and doing a bit of editing in Kate.

Thanks, Pete... I've reconciled myself to having to do a TSV export and shift spreadsheet columns around, then save as a txt file. Probably still have to do some find-replaces in Kate.

Xlog's RST fields, from which its Cabrillo log is extracted, seem
limited to 15 characters, but the ARRL Sweepstakes exchange (e.g.
1821 B WA3QRT 77 NTX) could easily exceed that. How does one cope
with that? Got about 1.5 hours to figure it out!

Can you use the QTH Field for section abbrev, and set up one of the two
custom field for ck number? Can Cabrillo export pick up the QSO number
as the serial number?

With best regards,

Pete
