Dick, 

"Cabrillo" output from each contest is contest specific.  That 
means that any conversion program must be written for the unique 
"cabrillo" format.  

Here's one source for a fair number of contests: 
  http://www.storm.ca/~ve3iay/cbr2adif.html 

If you know the specifics of the particular "Cabrillo" file, it 
is also relatively easy to use Excel to do a conversion (read 
the CBR file into Excel, add columns for the ADIF tags, add the 
required header/footer rows and write the ADIF/TEXT file). The 
problem again is that the columns in the CBR file are different 
based on the contest requirements and may not correspond to a 
specific ADIF tag. 

73, 

   ... Joe, W4TV
