[SFDXA] Club Log - SFDXA stats

Norm is offering to convert typed logs into ADIF, so let me also step up to the plate.  I'm a good typist with some extra time on my hands, and I'd love to help out those in the club who aren't good at typing, so here's what I'm offering:

Make a copy (I don't want to be responsible for the originals) of whatever list you have, get them to me, and I will type up ---only--- the contacts which are valid for DXCC standings.

You will need to highlight those entries as I don't want to figure them out.  I'll then email you a file to look over for errors, etc.  I'm not into spreadsheets, so besides just a list that's easy to read, I will also include an ADIF file.

Any takers?

Although it was a pleasant surprise when SFDXA jumped to the top of the list, I was more interested in seeing the range of DX counts of the members as a reflection of our activity.  In addition it could give us some motivation or incentive to work on helping members move up the country total list.

But with a little effort most should be able to cheery pick their paper logs and create a "DX new one log".  This could entail up to 370 or so entries if Deletions are included and only 349 for a top of the pile compilation.  Uploading that DX log to Club Log would likely assure our high standing.    So SFDXA club members dig out those old paper logs, DXCC submission sheets and type the key data into a spreadsheet.
