[VHFcontesting] Logging stations heard but not worked

[Buck.Calabro@commsoft.net (Buck Calabro)]

I'm a beginning Rover, and realise my station isn't going to compete with 
everyone else with nice antennas and more power.  Anyway, I can hear more 
stations than I can work (and I really try to work 'em!)  I'd sort of like to 
keep track of stations I can hear; if only to learn about how far I can expect 
to work Es with my set up.

1) Is this odd?  Do most people log stations heard?
2) If yes, do you keep a separate log of 'almost' 
   QSOs, and then transfer them to the Real Log 
   when/if you work the other end?
3) Am I making more work for myself than I need to?

73!
