[LCC] Clublog

Good question !!!

What is ClubLog good for.......... Mainly Data Mining, however I also use
it
while operating, more on that later down in this post.....

I suggest a quick look at the Power Point Over View of ClubLog
which I have edited to add some of my own comments and some updated data

The url is here..................

Here are the Top feature sets that I use routinely from ClubLog...

1.   A DX Cluster that only shows what is on now that I need, with a MUF
and other useful data right there. While I realize there are many other
cluster tools and I use them to. The data from ClubLog is based on what
others have logged !!!
for example.....
On 30 meters a few minutes ago based on My needs here is the Top Two listed
"spots"

Keep in mind these are verified calls, verified DXCC needs for me based on
what I uploaded to clublog.

2.   Needed DXCC reports easy to copy and paste to share with others what I
need
Look under TimeLine  then click Needed DXCC  here is a snap shot of what I
need...

Click here to see suggestions for DX callsigns in AFGHANISTAN in the last 3
years<https://secure.clublog.org/getqsos.php?fDXCC=3&fCall=KG5VK&fMode=1&fLinked=0&bTips=1>

So what does that tell me, for one it shows that OP in Afghanistan is a
LOTW user
so it encourages me to go look at my LOTW records, when I do that I see I
have a matching QSO in LOTW for these QSO's I just have not yet asked for
the QSL credit in LOTW

This is one of the many reasons data mining is good, it shows us where we
have loose ends. In this case QSO's that could easily be converted to
confirmed DXCC credits.

4.  Live Log links and this is very powerful...........

     If you take a look at QRZ.com and type a search for my call KG5VK

     you will see Two ways I use ClubLog,

    One is for posting the last Ten QSO's I made
     this is done with a script that searches my clublog
     account and keeps the data on    that QRZ page current

   The Second is using the On Line QSL service Tools<
   which used to be reserved only for use by rare DXCC enities and has been
made
   available to all of us, I love this because I hate getting IRC's and
from my one trip to
   the Ti5 I get alot of IRC's from JA's that want a QSL   Now they just
pay me thru PayPal and I send the card direct to them, clublog scripting
makes it easy

Don't over looking a simple click on the Help button from the home page of
ClubLog
there are many feature sets available

And the new Help desk too with the FAQ file is a great starting place for
new and old ClubLog users

Cheers !
