Even though I use xmlog, I've never set  up my lat and long and just use the 
program  to dump all my contest logs into.  The info from  QRZ is correct, 
it's just a matter of finding out what format xmlog wants.  Check the help 
file, or perhaps someone else on the list has done it and can give you the 
format.

I know some programs expect to see a S or N in the lat to tell if you are 
north or south  of the equator.    It will also need to know if you are east 
or west of  0 degrees lon.    Some programs want an  "W" for west while 
others want a minus sign.   It may want degrees and minutes without the 
seconds.  Maybe a space between degrees and minutes, or perhaps a period.

Sorry I can't give  a better answer, just a matter of finding out  what 
format xmlog wants.

73, Steve KW3A
