I like to use the .log file to import to excel.  After it is a excel file
you can do sorts to change the way the data is listed.  For example you can
do a sort by call sign, then you will have all the calls listed in
alphabetical order so you will see quickly on how many bands you worked
that rare DX station you have been needing.
