[DXLog.net - Support] Integration with Clublog

[Dave Sergeant]

I would tend to agree with John, I can see very little reason to upload 
to Clublog in real time.

DXpeditions who set up specific features of Clublog for online logs are 
a specific case and will show QSO matches immediately. But for normal 
stations I thought the QSL matching process was an addon and the 
database tables are only updated every 24 hours or so. Or maybe there 
are features of Clublog that I am not familiar with. Whatever, for most 
of us uploading an ADIF after the contest is more sensible - and surely 
if you are seriously doing a contest you won't be spending all your 
time watching Clublog...
