Default Passport to WORTHLESS band radio?

the fineware software is obsolete and hasn't been supported for a while,
there are other programs that do better like:

Have you tried the ilgdata file in conjuntion with Fineware's Radio
Listener's Database (RLDB)? Works quite well, in my opinion.

Since I prefer my frequency guide on paper, I like to download the
ilgsimpo file and convert it into an Excel document. After deleting
some columns, shifting and/or renaming some, abbreviating certain text,
reducing font size, etc., I come out with a decent product contoured to
my preferences. 250 pages (landscape, all columns on one page); so 125
pages, printing on both sides. Hole-punch the pages for a three-ring
binder. Requires a few hours to revise/format after downloading of the
files, but for a 6 month season, I find that it's more than worth it to
take the time...

As others have noted in this thread, though, it's good to be able to
refer to a variety of sources. EiBi is great; and for English-language
program listening, I wouldn't want to be without Daniel Sampson's
excellent PrimeTime Shortwave listings.

Dear Jim,

The ILG database is also superb. Formerly it took over a month for the
current schedule to be posted but this time they've outdone themselves:
the A06 schedule is already posted. I recommend that you and everyone
else get their password and download it.

Also keep checking WRTH's site. I'm sure they will have the complete
A06 schedule available for downloading very soon.

Best,

Joe
