This is a step by step procedure for importing site text files. Usually the site text files are delimited with commas or tabs, but they can also be fixed width. Pathloss 5 is flexible enough to read either.
Example link text file in CSV format:
Site name,Call sign,Latitude,Longitude Woking,CHW613,55.47972222,-118.74722222 Fairview,CHW614,55.83722222,-118.59666667
Step 1 - Open CSV file
Click View - Site List to bring up the Site index. You can also click the Site list button on the toolbar.
Click Import - Site text file
Select the text file you would like to import and click Open
Step 2 - Importing
This is a comma delimited file with column headers. Select Delimited and because we do not want to import the column names, set Start import at line to 2.
