Right click on the file, "save link as ...", save file to your $8D folder of BINs.

OK, that worked! Thanks for the help...

For some reason I couldn't get out of my head to download the file and save it to my computer...but there wasn't a "save file as" choice when I did a right click...

Looks like the wrong BIN MaskID for the XDF file being used. Need to use an $8D maskid BIN with an $8D xdf file. $6E maskid BIN with a $6E xdf file, and so on.

If I choose a different xdf file it gives me a warning they don't match...with this opened there wasn't a warning. Do you still think it's wrong?

I have a 7730 and the $8D xdf file open in TunerPro...
