I use this feature regularly.  It is great--and has snagged me new ones I
would have missed.  By the way, the "Alert!" voice is Dennis' wife.

I just got #299 last night - C56W, The Gambia. And I owe it all to LOGic.

 

I saw a spot for C56W on my upstairs computer so I ran down to shack but he
was gone. Bummer!

While tuning around I overheard the C56W call a couple of 4 land (I think)
stations. When they were done I asked if I could please move the C56W
station off their frequency up or down the band 5 kc for a new one - and
these fellows got upset.

 

Oh well I thought, no new one tonight.

 

Brainstorm! - Why not add him to the Alert feature in spot log?  So while I
worked on a LOGic report (an even fancier QSL card!) I let the Alert do its
thing. Bingo! Up he popped again.

 

Man he was weak.  A good friend, and of course LOGic user, calls this an
"ESP QSO".  And it was sure close to qualifying as such.  But we got the
exchange in and I trust I'm in his log for my #299. Thanks Dennis!

 

I'll find out for sure after sending him one of my fancier QSL cards -
another great feature of LOGic.

 

So the moral to this story is - there is a ton of useful features in LOGic .
how many do you use?
