 Whenever I have viewed this table (with phpLiteAdmin), there has been zero rows within the table.  This is because although MX creates the table, currently it does not actually use it.
-In [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=123594#p123594 this forum post] Steve Loft describes this table as being for a possible future enhancement.  He gives no clue as to why he selected the above columns or what he was thinking about using them for.  The table name suggests he was planning to replace the [[Standard log files|Standard log text files]] with a database equivalent.  I suspect he was actually thinking about implementing [[Monthly_log_files#Enhancement never implemented]].

In [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?p=113475#p113475 another forum post] he does give a little more detail about his proposal and this is backed up by his choice of table name. The table name suggests he was planning to duplicate the [[Standard log files|Standard log text files]] with a database equivalent.  I suspect he was actually thinking about implementing [[Monthly_log_files#Enhancement never implemented]] from his inclusion of "lo" and "Hi" values in the column list.
-This table still exists in release 3.12.0 that introduces the second table described below.  I wonder whether MX in the future will actually implement use of this first table.
