[RTTY] 2016 Digital Mode Most Wanted Survey - Session Timeouts

[G3YYD]

Clublog (www.clublog.org) enables you to up load your log in adif format (no
encoding needed unlike LoTW)). It can be zipped to save upload time. Then
use the clublog processes to find all sorts of information about your log.
Many DXers use it.

It also helps in working out propagation to DX places by using a real
database of millions of QSOs. I use it for those DXpeditions to find the
best time to work them.

There are instructions in the introduction at the top of the survey for
using LotW for your needs list.  On the LotW website, you can prefix sort
all your LotW and paper QSLs credited to DXCC.  Then, it is easy to transfer
to the survey which is also prefix sorted.

Creating a wanted list was the first thing I tried as soon as the survey was
released but I'm using Winlog32 for general logging and that feature is
broken, it has been broken for a while, the last time I was able to do so
was back in Oct 2005... I will have to get creative and do some manual
parsing...

If anyone has any tips I'm all ears (I mean eyes)...
