General Purpose Logging Software
My current general purpose logging software (HyperLog) is no longer supported,
so I am looking for a replacement. Following are my requirements. MUST HAVE --Intel/MS platform (Win, DOS, whatever) --Radio aware --Keyboard-centric (no mouse for routine logging) --Callbook CD aware --Import/Export ADIF --LoTW integration --Award tracking (DXCC, WAZ, etc) --Print QSL report labels --Impecable track record of author support Nominations please. (Price not important) 73, de Hans, K0HB |

I agree I have used N3FPJ programs for years because of there ease to
use and excellent support. Ron WA0KDS Dee Flint wrote: "KØHB" wrote in message ink.net...

My 2 cents worth is Win-EQF. Used it when it was DOS based only and it has
only gotten better over time. Support by the author is second to none, really great. Try the free version, if ya like, register it to get all the award modules working. Not associated in any with, just a very happy customer. K7SAM http://www.eqf-software.com/ |

Any query I can think up, I can run. Got a QSL card from AP2IA? mysql mylog -e "update log set name='Ijaz', city='Lahore', grid='MM62' where call='AP2IA'" and the data is updated for all QSOs. Can't do that with most other programs. -- Doug Smith W9WI Pleasant View (Nashville), TN EM66 http://www.w9wi.com |
N1MM Logger for it's radio support.
But it all depends on what you do. DXer? Contester? County Hunter? 10-10er? Award hunter? -- ...

Same here for the N3FPJ for "general logging" and ease of use plus great rig
control interface. I personally have used it but my mainstay is DXBase 2006 which I've used for years since it has the easiest logging procedure, and is geared to DX'ing , awards tracking and alerting one to "needed countries" -- Charlie Ham Radio - AD5TH www.ad5th.com Live Blues Music www.492acousticblues.com "Hamguy" wrote in message ...

What you have described is exactly what I have been looking for. tlf is cool for contesting, but I failed to find an everyday logging programs with those features described before. Since I don't boot into Windows anymore (or very rarely), I'd certainly want to give it a try.

I want to be able to log without looking at the screen (to see where to click) or take my hands off the keyboard. Hence my REQUIREMENT for a keyboard centric software design. 73, de Hans, K0HB |

Hence my REQUIREMENT for a keyboard centric software design. 73, de Hans, K0HB Well in ACLOG (http://www.n3fjp.com/) you can reconfigure the entry boxes in the order and tab order that works for you and then just move from field to field with the tab key or space key (except in fields where a space would be a legitimate entry such as in the comment field). Give the demo a try. It's unlikely these days that new software will be fully keyboard centric but of the ones that I have tried, this one is the easiest to use from a keyboard point of view. You can always drop the author an email on questions. And if you like, I can try to answer specific questions since I'm pretty familar with it. Dee D. Flint, N8UZE |

If God had wanted us to use a computer mouse, He would have given us three hands (or four so we could operate a paddle for CW as well). 73, Bob N7X |
Once again Win-EQF fills the bill. It can either way, mouse or keyboard.
Keyboard input is simple and direct. Another nice touch is the hot key system it has, lets you jump to a particular place on the screen. As an example, at any time while logging press the Alt-G key and you are taken to the Grid Square block. It will, like lots of other logging programs, let you design your own contest setup also. Nice if you do a state QSO party that does not have a standard format. K7SAM |
