deleted. Please note.
Advice

allows you to specify the file format that is used for
saving log data. The available formats are:

When memory data is loaded from the CF card, the
current memories stored in the
FT
DX
9000
will be over-
written, and the previous data is erased. We recom-
mend that you save and download the current
memory data to the CF card, if you want to use it
again later.
