DXers and DXpeditions
have come to rely on the online services provided by Club Log
(<www.clublog.org>) and its founder, Michael Wells, G7VJR. In order to
accommodate greatly expanded usage, Wells is in the process of making
major hardware upgrades, and he is getting significant financial help
from two DX foundations. The ARRL reports that the YASME Foundation has approved a grant of $4,000 to Club Log, and that CDXC - the UK DX Foundation is making a $2600 donation to the upgrade. This is over and above the $650 annual donation CDXC makes to support everyday Club Log operations. The site currently has some 70,000 active users and has records of nearly 600 million contacts.
