Chris, As I mentioned privately to Ria. Clublog states to not draw any
conclusions about overall activity vs their uploaded logs. My personal tests
have shown that FT8 is very much over-represented by FT8. I base that on CQing
and seeing how many of the responders are CLublog uploaders as well as scanning
the band and recording the same. Surprisingly, only 25% were showing up on
Clublog. I would venture to guess 90% of FT8 activity is showing up on clublog
(it’s a guess only).
Tune around and do your own research. I did. And the answers made more sense.

Clublog statistics support (approximately) that ratio of FT8 to CW + SSB + RTTY
and other digital qsos. I was also surprised.

I am curious where this datapoint is coming from?
