Has anyone had experience with either of these Or, is there one that is a
favorite with the folks here? It's going to take a long time to input all
the information and I want to make sure that I get the right software.
Thanks!


I simply use a database file in an old version of Microsoft Works. It
allows me to create my own fields, sort by any field, search, etc. It's
very versatile. I can even copy & paste loggings to a text file or anywhere
else I want. I think any database program should work well as a shortwave
log. And the best part is, if you already use the software for other
purposes, you don't have to pay anything to use it as a logbook.


True indeed, and it=3Fs nice to have that flexibility. There are some
freebies out there that do a wonderful job, well worth checking out even
if you already have a homebrewed system in place. Shortwave Log
(
www.shortwavelog.com) is one of them. Definitely something to look
into.
