One would expect contest program to support both DX Cluster formats - sh/dx
history and online spots!

Mine does it since 1988 when I bought DRSI card at Dayton, the only PC
peripheral still in use.

  This is great to know, because rebooting causes the loss of all spots
unless the cluster you are using supports the sh/fdx/nn command to quickly
reload the spots.

  BTW, I keep a shortcut to writelog.ini on my desktop so I have convenient
access to it at all times.  Access to writelog.ini is that important to me!
