Hi Jim,<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Its just
another neat tool for those who enjoy chasing and confirming DX, then
comparing your stats with others within your club, and comparing your
club with other clubs. Steve, KG5VK, has a nice powerpoint on it. It will
answer most questions, and some simple poking around on it can lead you
to some nice tools, such as predicted propagation paths based on actual
data, etc. The presentation is available at: <br><br>

<font size=2><x-tab> </x-tab>After
working a contest, or in the case of DX, maybe once or twice a month, you
upload your logs to Clublog. Many DXpeditions u/l their logs to Clublog
as well. You can log on and see if you are "in the log" to know
whether you need an "insurance" contact. Once you see you are
there, many have an "OQRS" option. Since your qso info is
already matched, you click it, approve the payment amount (paypal), and
the money is on the way without you having to fill out cards or address
envelopes, or worry about overseas postage. Faster and about 1/2 the cost
of traditional QSLing.<br>
<x-tab> </x-tab>Once your
logs are up, you can see worked / confirmed DX by band or mode. To many,
the tables are easier to read that the country matrix displayed on
LOTW.<br><br>
