I haven't read N7MQ's "loss of data" report, but I have had computer
crashes of various kinds during contests and have ALWAYS had a successful
log recovery following the restart. As it happens, I have a redundant log
on a separate networked computer, but the crashing computer has ALWAYS
successfully recovered its own copy AOK.
I should have added: I have my copy set up to automatically save the file
before the "save file" warning comes on, so I never have to manually save
it. I manually save only when shutting down for the night or at end of contest.

Hi all,
Hhhmmm. After reading of Mark's (N7MQ) sad loss of data, I began wondering
about the back-up facility in WL.
