Even if that is and additional 100 bytes it will not significantly bloat our files. And if you don’t want this information in the dive, store your hash table of latest dives in the log, as it is specific to the log and not the machine. I have great respect for your opinion on aesthetic views but here it seems to stop us from doing the right thing. Of course it would be great if libdc provided the information for which dive computers this is worthwhile doing (where it prevents downloading the whole log). Just my $.02 Robert
