[LOGic] No spots to spot log from internet

[K0DAN]

Hi Mel...

I agree Telnet is the way to go. However, if you've been QRT for several 
days/weeks, using DX-Summit or DX-Scape to fill-in the last 1000 or 10,000 
spots can be helpful to see what kind activity there's been, where your 
favorite DXped has been operating, etc.

Actually, when I start LOGic after a period of non-use, I use both web-based 
and Telnet formats, but then once I have the old spots fill in on LOGic's 
SpotLog, I shut off the web-based util, and exclsuively use Telnet until the 
next restart.

BTW there's also a subtle "feature" (????)...if you backup LOGIC, a number 
of the functions (including Telnet) are shut down until the backup is 
completed. The Log, Info Screen, etc., return, but Telnet does not, needs to 
be manually restarted. The last few times this happened, I lost several 
hours of DX spots until I discovered Telnet was gone. Using DXSummit I was 
able to load old spots to the point where I'd lost Telnet.
