You're lucky at the moment, but like all list loggers, someday you'll

really screw
up, they all do. If you've been in the hobby for almost 40 years, surely

you'd be
aware of that.


Just what exactly is a list logger?


A list logger, in hobby parlance, is one who takes a published
frequency/station list, tunes his radio to said frequency at said time, and
then says 'I heard station 'xyz' at 2100 on frequency xxx', however, the
individual may have never heard an ID or anything that would actually indicate
that is indeed station 'xyz'.Their 'logging' is only as reliable (or
unreliable) as the list. Now, the list may or may not be correct, and the
station heard may not actually be the station on the list.

Things like that can and do happen. Proper identification leads to proper
lists, BUT, the list itself should only be used as a guide. Anything else is
merely a 'presumtive' logging of station 'xyz'
