Club Log

Jan, OY3JE recently contacted us to tell us about a great amateur radio service called 'Club Log'.

This is an excellent service. Club Log's database contains 16,907,985 QSOs from 2,181 callsigns. Each day, an average of 69 new logs are uploaded, and last week 9,496 new QSOs were made by Club Log members.

On the Club Log website, there's an introduction by Club Log's author, Michael G7VJR, which reads:

"Club Log is a web-based application that uses a large database to analyse amateur radio log files, which are uploaded by users all over the world. Using the logs, it is possible to offer band-mode league tables, efficient log search tools, analysis for DXpedition planning purposes and most wanted lists for DXCC entities (including by date, band or mode for example).

"There is a great deal of information that can be mined and analysed in a standard ADIF file. Club Log can provide empirical propagation charts, and give back to its users the ability to find "wanted" DX spots, identify QSLing gaps and perform other analysis of their logs which might be hard to do with normal logging software. Through Club Log, I also host online log search systems for significant DXpeditions.

"One of the driving principles of Club Log is to store as many QSOs as possible, as this makes the reports and statistics more meaningful and representative. Everything in Club Log depends upon analysing real QSOs, and or this reason I am very grateful to everyone who participates. If you have not joined yet, I warmly invite you to sign up and join the action! It is completely free."
