I’ve added locator.clublog.org to Club Log. Using vector not PNG raster tiles for the first time. It seems really great (very sharp text on retina displays even if zoomed). If you need to find your locator, or just want to explore the Maidenhead system, this is a light, easy option with a beautiful map.
It’s been a while since I conducted an analysis of the modes on the air (such as in 2021). One of the reasons is that it’s quite laborious to do the analysis, and I haven’t really expected to be able to reveal something new that would garner attention. However, we are in the era of […]

Club Log has received a substantial grant from major DX foundations to invest in new hardware for 2020 and beyond
Francesco, IV3TMM has long been part of the core of DXers who work with the team at Club Log to improve our database of DXCC and CQ zone lookups.

Congratulations in equal parts to Robert, W4PG and Roly, ZL1BQD. Here are the milestones I’ve recorded: October 2009: 10 million QSOs February […]
Every few years, I’ve posted a chart of which modes are being used on the air (based on what is uploaded to Club Log). This report isn’t lightweight to calculate, so I don’t have it as a standard feature in Club Log for you to access, but I’m just as interested in the results as […]
I was very fortunate to be invited to speak at the Tokyo Ham Fair this year, by Yutaka JQ2GYU and Joe JA1LZR. Those with long memories may recall we operated as a team together with Martin G3ZAY as GJ6UW from Jersey in 2011, and became firm friends. Martin joined me on this trip and it […]
On Friday 15 May 2015 at the DX Dinner at Dayton, I was inducted into the CQ DX Hall Of Fame. Thank you for the messages and for the appreciation! I hadn’t foreseen this and it is absolutely wonderful news to be recognised at such a level. I was unable to attend Dayton but John […]
