[CQ-Contest] arrl dx ssb spotting report

[David Robbins K1TTT]

I had a couple other requests for the databases so go for it.. you can get
the arrl logs at:

http://www.k1ttt.net/logs/2007arrldxcwclusterdb.zip
http://www.k1ttt.net/logs/2007arrldxssbclusterdb.zip

Those are the access databases I use for my reports, including the queries I
use and some other tools.  If you come up with some good queries to find the
busted ones send them back to me and I'll include them in the future.
