Question about ex date and date of record?

Two sweet divy stocks:

OXF 19.2% yield (paid quarterly)
ARR 17.3% yield (paid monthly!)

Need to own the stock on ex-date to get the dividend (you can sell it on the ex date and you get the divy, if you buy on ex-date you do not). Date of record really means nothing as far as getting the divy.
