Tree:

So after you operate the 1998 SS CW contest, you have to remember to rename
arrl_ss.log  to sscw98.log  or something like that so you don't confuse it
with all your old sscw logs?  Am I missing something here?

With the current system, at the end of the contest I already have a
directory named  sscw98, with the log and config files in it.  So, if I
want to call up an old log, I already have that year's config file in the
same directory.  I am sure a lot of you slightly modify your config file
from year to year for each contest,  and this change would make it a little
harder to associate each config file with each log.
