Updates to this page are not delayed by COVID-19 / SARS-CoV-2 matters. Stay at Home. Stay Safe.
Learning CW during 'lockdown'? Try these programs.
Some clubs are training (on and off-air), such as LICWC and CWops. Also try SSN for regular activity (even make a 'cootie').

	CW Club files
	for N1MM, N1MM Logger+ (Call History) & Logger32 (CheckCall)*

* Data may be usable in other logging programs
Notes: This data is for clubs dedicated to CW or where the vast majority of members use CW
This page does not and will not provide any member related information except for: Callsign, Christian Name, Surname†, SPC†, Number, Club.
*** Source data is entirely in the public domain, which can be proven by using the 'Reference Link' entries (by club) in the table below. ***
† Only if supplied by club (SPC is location; State, Province or Country)

>>>>> 128479  CW club memberships* <<<<<
N1MM Logger+  ~[memberships + no. of clubs]	128569
Logger32 CheckCall shows all lines, including comments (#) and header strings (!!)	132860

* This is a correct total. Your logger may report a slightly different number.
N1MM Logger+ loading time ~36s on my machine (not executed each start-up).
The data amounts to most of the CW club members in the world.
This page has been active since 2012-06-21, with an initial 18 clubs.

***How to display real-time lightning map while running logging programs***

---

Additional commands available in the callsign field:

LATEST	date and time, most recent update
RECORDS	number of records in file
CLUBS	number of clubs in file
FILE	filename/path (truncated) of file

---

Club Call History files work with Logger32 when add-on CheckCall (by JA1NLX) is used [tested with v6.03 and earlier]
CheckCall shows ALL club membership numbers, etc., unlike CallHistory checking in N1MM Logger+

            

---

cw_clubs_call_history.txt shows all club memberships listed here against each callsign entered in N1MM Logger Classic and N1MM Logger+
Files have been tested with N1MM Logger[+] in DX mode only.
Make sure “Show User Information” is checked on the Entry window’s right-click menu, so that data from the Call History table is also displayed on the Bearing line.
Even if Call History Lookup is not enabled, data from the User Text field of the table is still displayed on the User Data line, below the Bearing line. 
If you have problems with N1MM Logger+ v1.0.8293 and later and the annoying contest "auto-association" feature, please check the following information:
https://n1mmwp.hamdocs.com/setup/call-history/#identifying-the-call-history-lookup-data-contests

Membership no. shown is the last club found  e.g. SOC
Any single Call History file can be loaded for one club (e.g. soc_call_history.txt)

      

Recent/Current/Upcoming DXpeditions using N1MM Logger+ as their logging program

ZK3A, A35JT, VP8PJ

---

N1MM specific:
As Office/Access Jet engine is used (not SQLite), loading of large Call History files can be very slow!

---

N1MM Logger+ specific:
N1MM+: You can load any of the Call History files using File/File Import/Import Call History.
Select cw_clubs_call_history.txt if you want all of them as one file.
 Make sure that the entry window is wide enough to display high membership numbers. They are not displayed truncated, they completely disappear!
Try using a club with many members, where the numbers can be 5 digits long.
 You can show member spots only in the bandmap by going to Telnet/Filters and enabling 'Show only spots that are in Call History'.

Use with other logging programs

CQRLOG [Linux] uses 'stripped down' versions of membership fields. You'll need to 'translate' the files to make them work1,2 Examples: Call or Call;Number or Call;Number;Date Start;Date End [where dates are in format YYYY-MM]

DXLog uses a different syntax for "CallHistory" files {not documented in web page or Wiki}. You'll need to 'translate' the files to make them work1  Examples: Call=Number or Call=Name;Number (387 users on Groups.io)

drlog (N7DR) [Linux] uses the 'raw' files successfully.

1) As there is no 'User Text' field to denote a club name, combined listings cannot be meaningfully used with this program
2) As there is no 'Name' field, this reduces useful data from most clubs

It seems pretty obvious, that with N1MM Logger+ (4,547 users on Groups.io) and Logger32 (3,852 users on Groups.io) dominating their respective logging slots (contest/everyday), it's about time that other programs made more use of Call History files and that they and the existing ones use more options. Confused? Go here for more.

Footnotes:
1. After loading Call History file, N1MM will turn off lookup. Don't forget to turn it back on.
2. Very hard work! ARRL doesn't say when updates have been last made and doesn't format names in a standard way. Neither do they have a downloadable flat database file.
Updates here are done on an irregular basis because of the work load. Additionally they use at least a couple of 'slashed zero' fonts which don't make sense!
Many of those listed are SK and some are not frequent CW operators. Beware of old calls that have moved on to new operators as 'Vanity' calls..
3. I Check often - the spreadsheet version is infrequently updated.
4. Version includes SKCC 'SPC' field.
5. New SKCC QSO Party uses 'Grid Square' [Maidenhead Locator, XXnn] and optionally 'SPC' if member(!). Insufficient data to build this file......
6. Server #fsize function returns 'K' incorrectly, when  it should be 'k'. Blame lack of SSI standards for this.
7. There may have been no changes since last check. Based on last update of {xxx}_call_history.txt files, granular to the second. We try to update at a better rate than 50 days.
8. Data not complete (currently). Typically, '[an error occurred while processing this directive]' error will be shown.
Data is not included in the main cw_clubs_call_history.txt or clubs.txt files. Data (untested) may be available in the raw and call history files for this club.
9. All of the non-comment lines in the file. This is not the number of all-time members. Some membership numbers have multiple callsigns. SKs lines are commented out.
10. Largest CW club in the world.
11. Latest membership number. 'none' indicates club doesn't issue membership numbers.
12. Latest update overall. Filename changed to cw_clubs_call_history.txt
13. Basically, everything except an electronic keyer.
14. Holds the dubious record of being the most expensive club to be a member of. LICWC and FOC. $30/yr. Seriously?
15. Some references call this club HCWC, others HCC. There are more for the earlier, not the latter.
16. Most recent member can be determined because of an RSS feed, despite no membership numbers. In this case alone, the latest is placed at the top of the file.
17. Meet on SSB net frequency, but all airline pilots know morse code and the members are frequently spotted on CW.
18. Membership numbers stop and start in blocks for EU & UK, Americas, East Asia and 'Down Under'. '#gap' comment line is used to identify where these occur.
Note: Americas Chapter going to 'free lifetime membership', 2021-01-01.
19. Has an astounding amount of funds available.
20. Actual number of members, not callsigns.
21. Number of members claimed on web site. Full list unavailable, accumulated from Twitter account.
22. These clubs were started in Netherlands/Germany combined. Hosting/Contact as follows: HSC: DJ/DJ; VHSC: PA/PA; SHSC: PA/DJ; EHSC: PA/DJ
[Joining fees vary, SHSC & EHSC quote '12 IRCs or equivalent']
23. SSN nets: 7044 kHz at 00:00z, 10121.5 kHz at 00:30z, more see link.

You can jump to the end of 'Reference Link' pages by using 'End' and jump to the top by using 'Home'.

Along with others (such as CQRLOG), I was told to remove G-QRP listings. Seemingly they want to hide under a rock!
At last count (at the time of removal), they had 5810 members (4.94% of total on this page).

Most of these clubs have free membership, except for those noted. Fastest growing clubs are SKCC, NAQCC and TBDXC.
