[ILQSO] Submitting logs on excel

[James Funk]

Excel is perfect.  They ALL wind up in Excel sooner or later.  An Excel
spreadsheet needs columns for the following:

Your callsign
Your location
Band (can be frequency...exact or approximate...or wavelength)
Mode
Time
Station Worked
Exchange Received

I should have access to e-mail all week but only at night.

Don,

I think Jim is on the road again this week and may be intermittently on
the
net for the next week or two.  

But to answer your question, yes EXCEL is certainly acceptable and very
much
preferred to a paper log submission.  In fact all submissions,
electronic or
paper, will eventually end up in a single EXCEL file for the event
analysis
and scoring.  In fact, last year the XYL (NB9Q) and I had the job of
transcribing all of the paper log submissions into EXCEL format for this
purpose.  Last year that task required manual transcription of over 5000
QSO's.  So anything that will minimize that task this year will be
greatly
appreciated.

73,

Mike NA9Q
