I can't find anything about "divesight" , except in the header for
https://www.apdiving.com/en/rebreathers/resources/software/

I just tested with the latest APLogViewer , and it still worked exactly
the same.

Copy-to-clipboard, and you get to paste it in your favorite notepad.exe
and save. Imports like a charm in subsurface.

I can't find any "export" function in APLogViewer. Could you point me
exactly to which software you're using?

If I look at the binary, the weird caracter is 0xF8, which is "LATIN
SMALL LETTER O WITH STROKE" both in cp1252 and latin1.

0xB0 is the DEGREE SIGN.


Anyway, open it in your favorite editor and either remove the caracter
or save it as unicode and then you can import it.
