deleting a tx log backup

Hi,
I backed up my transaction log in order to perform a point in time restore.
I backed it up to an ad hoc folder. The database actually does backup the
log file once a night to a different location. I'm going to change this to
once every thirty minutes.
Can I delete this ad hoc transaction log file backup, or do future backups
depend on it?
Thanks very much for your ideas on this. I just want to be safe!
Many thanks!

Hello,
If you have a FULL database backup taken after the specific trasnaction log
backup you could delete the log backup file mentioned. Otherwise you need
that specific log
backup file for while recovery.
Thanks
