But the question is, the need for a serial number generator. A contest 
exchange of state, country, province is easy to do with the macro's. But 
what do you do with a RTTY contest needing serial numbers. ?? and the 
ability to resend the last number in case of a requested repeat. And 
then we would need to move on to scoring and the various contest rules. 
TLF is very flexible with rules and scoring, plus the serial numbers. 
That is why I think intergrating gmfsk and tlf is the better answer. 
Xlog is an excellent logging program, so please do not misunderstand 
that I may think it isn't, I just feel that TLF and gmfsk would be a 
better solution. Unless you think you could intergrate Xlog and gmfsk to 
allow the use of the CW contesting built into Xlog, where there is 
serial numbering available. 73
