If you don't like what you see, just wait and it will change. The first time went to http://www.df3cb.com/oqrs2/t33c/index.php it only showed one SSB QSO and no RTTY so I assumed I was not in the log and worked them again. Just checked back and I now have 9 QSOs showing - most RTTY. GL de Dick, AA5VU |

I found that the log program doubled my contacts. Still, valuable to
know that one is somewhere in the log. Great idea. Mac N8TT -- J. Mc Laughlin - Michigan USA "Zlatko Feric" wrote in message ... made 2 contacts, first on April 6th, second on April 7th, but neither QSO listed on T33 website online log??? 73! 9A3MN |

It has not improved the chances of finding and working the DX, it has merely made DXing into a computerized checkbox game. It has also made the DX-cluster unusable, because these days you will find more URLs for online logs than actual DX-spots.

On-line logs should dramatically cut the number of "insurance" QSOs, thus reducing the pile-ups and giving more people a chance. 73 ...

Must disagree, Peter. On-line logs should dramatically cut the number of "insurance" QSOs, thus reducing the pile-ups and giving more people a chance. I will chime up with support for Zoran here. I popped 3B9C on 10 and 12 SSB last week and frankly, it was ESP at best. I waited to check the logs to see whether or not my Q's were in fact in there, and I saw that they were. I won't be wasting my time with insurance Qs on those bands, nor will anybody need to step over my signal to get through on 10/12 again. 73 de Peter, W2IRT (ex-AB2NZ, VE3THX) Please reply to Double-you Two Eye Are Tee at Arrl.net |

Back to the original statement.
The oneline log shows all my QSO's with the addition of a dupe contact on 12 meter CW.There is a note on the web page that says they are aware of dupe qsos showing up and they are trying to correct it.For the QSO's I made,the log is accurate. Joe W7KQU |

I will chime up with support for Zoran here. And I still disagree. Let people make their insurance QSO, but they will still have to fight their way through the pile up and use their operating skills to do so. And if you don't know that you worked a station, well, you didn't work it anyway, no matter what the online log says. On the negative side (and I believe that one outweighs the possible positive elements of online logs during an expedition) we have a vast number of people yelling in a pile up and never listening, because they hope to be in the log anyway. We see constant requests for URLs on the cluster, we have people loudly complaining about incomplete logs and we have an attitude that asks for online logs, no matter how remote the place is and how big the expedition is. Online logs are the last nails into the coffin of DXing by skill.
