Which leads one to wonder how it knows when I was merely listening. Or 
doesn't listening time count as "on" time any more?

PS But this really ought to be on some sort of Cabrillo reflector, I 
suppose.

PPS Confession time: I haven't yet tried this (I don't have a Cabrillo-
capable version of POST on my shack computer) so maybe it's trivial. I'm 
going to have to generate a real log and a check log (for different bands) 
for CQWW slopbucket. In the past I would just tell POST to generate 
separate logs for each band, and then tell the CQWW checkers which was the 
real log and which the check logs in my covering e-mail. Does POST let one 
generate band-by-band Cabrillo logs as well? Or do I have to generate the 
band-by-band logs in the old format first, and then separately walk through 
generating the Cabrillo logs by telling POST to Cabrillo-ize (!!) the logs 
one at a time?

PPPS What right do I have to complain about people who don't read the 
manual or spend five minutes experimenting when I'm just as bad???
