Beginners • log file for cron

I am trying to find the crontab log file but with no luck.
Google tells me many others have the same question but no good answers. It must be quite a niche subject.

The man pages for cron says

• the default is to log the start of all jobs.
• the configuration is controlled by the file "/etc/default/cron"

I setin the file "/etc/default/cron"
but I can't see what difference it makes, but the fact that the file exists encourages me to keep looking for a log file.

I see an answer on here saying to enable logging in the file but that file doesn't exist on a default installation of Raspberry Pi OS.
