How-To Use the Built In QSL Card Printing Feature
I use CCLogger exclusively for anything regarding the 3905 Century Club, with the exception of being on an actual net to send messages, then I use Netlogger's AIM function. CCLogger allows me to mark people that i need to contact, email them my qsl card (for both personal and club), and add QSL cards to each contact when it comes it (including eqsl and LoTW). I can track who I have and haven't sent an email to and send a second notice. Best of all, I can create an awards application within the logger and it will tell me if I'm incomplete or not. When I'm ready to send it to my awards manager, I don't have to mail it via usps, which would be expensive. I can email the pre-filled out application and pdf file of the qsl cards to my award manager. Using CCLogger saves me time and energy. Yes, there was a bit of a learning curve, but that's with any program. Once I got it figured out, and my process setup how I like it, it takes me about 10 minutes after each net to do things.
I really don't see any reason to NOT use CCLogger to track things and manage my QSO's and QSL's.

Thanks for the work you put into ccLogger. This is so much more than a Logging Program, and it is reassuring to know I have digital images of all my QSL cards stored away. Well beyond the management of my QSL's is the ease at which I can look into some of the many non-progressive awards, such as Alphabet Soup, WAS, Ben Franklin, and Beat the Clock. I very recently worked on and received the Dictionary Award. Using ccLogger it took me maybe 30 minutes to go through and find the needed words to come up with my first 100 points. I cannot imagine the time involved in performing this task looking at physical QSL cards. I would have probably never sought this award without the help of ccLogger. My Dictionary Award is #69. That is less then the number of Masters!!

It would be very difficult to be an NCS without your program. It is a great asset.

I started operating on the 3905 CCN 40 and 75 meter phone nets in May of
2005. It was not long before I discovered a great tool for keeping track
of my contacts on the net. That tool was the 3905 Century Club Logger.
Dean has created a great utilitarian piece of software to maintain your QSL
records and print QSL cards for contacts made on the 3905 nets. This saves
a lot of time. The features found in the CC Logger are indispensable when
operating on the CC Nets.

The CCLogger program makes it for me! Even if I'm late for a net, I can see
a complete list (if the net's being logged), you can see at a glance who
you've worked and when you worked them, and the effort it saves me in keeping up
with my cards is invaluable. Thanks Dean and everyone else involved in
bringing this tremendous work saver to the group!

The primary function of the program is to record contacts you work
into the ccLoggers logbook.
After a station is recorded the program will display additional information
for you including indicators for state capital, Original Charter Signer,
Master Degree holder, officer, if a station is running QRP and if so the
power level, or if the station is a YL. It will also look up the call in the
FCC data base and show you the stations name address city and state,
determine if the station is good in the buro by looking up the station in the
supplied BURO database.
If you decide to work a station the program will prompt you to provide both
of the Signal reports (RST) and then add a record to the Contacts data base.
The contacts database is the respository of all of the contacts you have made.
After the contact is made the program will make the checkin that you have
made the contact.
|
|
Contacts can be manually be entered into the Contacts data base by using
the contacts edit screen or using one of several additional utilities provides. Using this screen you may also add additional
information to the contact as needed. Specifically this is where you customize
the QSL card information.
|
|
All aspects of QSL card management are included.
|
 |
The Award edit screen can be used to assign contacts to specific awards.
|
 |
With version 3.00 we have added the ability for realtime monotoring monitoring of nets.
When a station becomes a logger for a specific net then any other station may monitor
the check-in list in real time mode. When the logger makes changes then everyone
gets those changes in his/her check in list.
|
|
We have even included a new Browser utility that will allow you view all of the
nets that are currently being monotored. By using this stand alone utility you
you can print out a check in sheet of any net in progress.
|
|
Starting with version 4, registered users may sign up for DX Notifications. If you
have signed up for this service and a DX station has checked in to one of the
nets that is being logged by some one you will receive an email notifying you
of this event.
|
 |
Included with the software is a current copy of the entire amateur FCC call
data base. Also included is the license file from Canada. This data base is
used throughout the program to display individual data such as name and address,
city state, and zip code. This is used to initially determine if a contact is
on a state capital, and also can ber used to create address labels.
From time to time updated databases will be uploaded and available on
the Alpine Software Download page. Simply download the updated files and
install them into your current Century Club Logger directory. After installed
run the FCC Re-Synchronize function to apply any personalized changes, such as
first name.
The program also support downloading either the full FCC database or the
daily FCC updates from the FCC web site. With this feature you can keep
your FCC data always up to date.
|
|
As an option you may use the program to email the current list of checkin
to a email reflector or to a email list provided by the Century Club. You
have complete control of the format of the message text.
A easy to use interface also allows you to import a checkin list from either
email or the reflector and supports many different fromats.
|
 |
Using the QSL/Email assistant you can send emails to stations that have not
sent you a QSL card.
|
One of the important benefits of the Century Club Worked All States (WAS) and DX Awards nets are it's FREE QSL buro's
that any station can use to process their QSL cards. For more information
please check out The Century Club Worked All States (WAS) and DX Awards Nets Web Site
The buro works by first sending envelopes to the buro and then when you work
stations you send all of your cards to the buro. The buro then sorts the cards
and send back to you using one of the supplied envelopes your cards. If you
send a card to the buro that is not good the buro manager will return it to
you at which time you will have to get it to the station using another means
like the US Post Office.
When you make a contact the Century Club Logger will search the BURO data base
and if that station is not fopund will mark the contact as a DIRECT contact.
When you use the QSL printing features these cards will be marked so you can
set them aside for manual distribution. The other cards can then be sent
to the BURO.
|
This program originally started out as a program to only print out QSL cards
and assist in keeping track of what cards were sent and received. Using the
QSL management functions of the program you complete and personal messages
for the contact and run the generation process. It will only generate QSL
cards or labels for any contact that has not been previously been generated.
When conplete it will mark all contacts for which QSL cards were generated
with a sent status and record the current date.
As you receive QSL cards a simple lookup screen can be used and simple mouse
clicks to record that a card has been received and the date received. There
are also some standard reports used to track QSL cards not received.
|
Using the included Report Generator you may design your own QSL cards to your
exact format. Using the many fields in the databases you can all but automate
your qsl process.
Sample Generated Cards
|
A number of standard reports are provided to assist you in managing your
contact data. All of the supplied reports can be modified to meet your own
specific needs. From time to time we will make additional reports available
on our web site that can be downloaded and loaded into the ccLogger program. |

The program provides an easy to use method to import any existing contact
data you may have from another logging program or file using the standard
ADIF file format. For example if you have LOGEQF you may export the data
to ADIF and directly import that contact data into the Century Club Logger.
If you are using Microsoft Excel to keep track of your contacts you may
import that data as well. A easy to wizard will guide you through the steps.
|
|
Contact data may be imported from other logging programs using the ADIF import
functions of the LogImport utility.
|
|
If you need to export your contact to other logging programs or to the ARRL
Log Book of The World a friendly interface will allow you to export the data
exactlyt to your needs.
|
Contact data may also be exported to a number of external formats including
Microsoft Word or Excel, HTML, dbase, plus many more.
And finally where would a program like this one be without a backup/restore
function. Our Backup/Restore program is a seperate program designed to backup
all data except the FCC data to a different location such as a CD rom or ZIP
drive. Frequent backups will insure that if you have a computer system failure
you will be able to recover your data. The restore function can restore any
backed up data.
