	The digital contacts would be part of one log. They would be mixed  
together just like CW and SSB are now.

	I'm not sure why you find it difficult to include the digital, SSB,  
and CW, in the same log. Is there something I am missing?

	And yes, the logging programmers would need to make an addition to  
their software. I was in contact with many of them earlier this year  
asking about the change. Most said it was  a doable thing. One wasn't  
really interested in updating his software.
