Joe, I'm sticking with DXB.  Took me a long time to learn what I needed 
to know.  It does everything I need done at this point.  My requirements 
are simple.  Stats and logging plus interface with DXCluster.  The 
reports are nice and some of the searches are helpful.  LOTW was a 
little awkward at first but I've figured that out.

Kind regards and 73,

Steve, N4JQQ
