LOGic's electronic callbook feature far surpasses anything else on the market. Not only does it provide support for the usual commercial CD-ROM and Web-based subscriptions, it formats data from callbook web sites so that it may be utilized by LOGic.

Additionally, LOGic includes a built-in database which is a compilation of all callsign databases available via the internet. This super-fast database is so fast it may be used while contesting. You may update it while online, and access it when you are operating mobile or portable and not online.

Perhaps the best feature of LOGic's callbook is the ability to automatically search multiple databases and web sites until the call is found. This search is done intelligently -- LOGic will not search a US database for a French call, for instance. You may specify that a database is comprehensive for the country in question.  For instance, if a US call does not exist in the FCC web site database, it is not a valid call, and there is no use in searching further. (Manual database selection is provided for looking for expired calls).

You can specify the order in which LOGic searches the databases.  For instance, you may specify LOGic's internal database is to be searched first, since practically no waiting is involved. Putting the FCC and other country's government web sites next will search for calls not in LOGic's internal database.  Then you may put QRZ.COM after that, asnd so forth.

Web sites are processed in background so that you may continue to log while waiting for a response from the web site. The data to be logged will pop into the log when it is returned.

Unattended batch mode updates imported data.

Advertisements from commercial sites such as QRZ.COM are displayed to comply with fair usage standards and to keep these valuable sites available for future use.

MEMBERSHIPS DATABASE              Click pictures to enlarge.
  • Memberships database feature for organizations such as 1010, SMIRK, OMISS, FISTS, county hunters, etc.
     
  • Automatic display of station's membership info when logging.
     
  • Auto logging of membership data. Great for the NCS!
     
  • Awards tracking for membership.
     
  • Many lists updateable from internet.
     
  • Internet-updateable Logbook of the World users database lets you know instantly if a station your work is an LoTW user.

LOGic's membership database keeps lists of stations who are members of organizations such as 1010, SMIRK, FISTS, etc. You can see at a glance all organizations  that a station belongs to when you log it, or when it is received in LOGic's spot log.

Suppose you are working a station on 15 meters, and see that she is a 1010 member. LOGic lets you know  that you have not worked him on 10 meters before, and you need his state on 10. You ask her to QSY, and pick up a new 1010# and state!

Membership number, as well as name if provided, is logged automatically. This is perfect for Net Control Stations. Auto-logging may be done conditionally -- for instance, the 1010# is logged only when operating on ten meters.

LOGic will update its memberships database via the internet from organizations' web sites. If your organization has an online memberships list that is not currently included in LOGic, we will add it. You may also enter menberships lists manually, then export to share with other LOGic users.

The memberships database also contains the HB9BZA Logbook of The World users database, updateable from the internet.  It includes over 12,000 entries, and is growing daily, thanks in part to LOGic, which can automatically send your confirmations to be added to the database.
