Looking for contest software

Do you know of a good contest logging program OTHER THAN CT? I am currently 
gathering 
data for an article of logging programs for contestors. Yes, I did the May 
article on logging 
software in QST.  If you have a favorite, please email to me directly the name 
of the program 
and the author or distributor. Other comments are optional but welcome.

If you have plans to be at Dayton, there will be a logging software forum on 
Friday, 1:00 to 
2:45 pm in Room 7.

> write-ups.  My May QST came yesterday and I was upset to learn

I have not received my May QST yet, either.  As a life member, I was 
often curios as to why I get mine late, I guess the feeling is that they 
have "nothing to lose", who knows...

As for submitting logs, I have been lucky, but I have also been careful.  
I always make copies of my logs, I send paper and disks in the mail, I 
send logs Certified Mail with a return receipt.  I want to know they get 
there;  this seems to work.

I submitted logs once via the ARRL BBS dialup. They did get there, but I 
had no confidence in this method.  I had no proof I had submitted them 
prior to the deadline, nor did I know if the Contest branch had actually 
received the logs.  So, I called on the phone;  Billy Lunt said, "oh it 
takes a couple of weeks to get that stuff from the BBS people", but he 
did later confirm that the logs were there.  From that point on, I sent 
the by Certified Mail once again.

For electronic submission, I think there needs to be a "receipt" sent 
back to the sender, acknowledging receipt of the file, and stating that 
it was received prior to the deadline.  Until that happens, I will take 
the time to go to the post office and send my logs in an envelope with a 
return card from the PO.  

By the way, I use the PO card, not a card in the envelope.  That way, I 
have a signed card from the league (or whomever) stating the actual date 
the logs were received in the mailroom, not the date someone opened the 
envelope and looked for a postcard.  This isn't much of a problem with 
ARRL, but for CQ, it could be.  Their logs get sent so many places so 
many times, I am amazed they keep track of them!

Speaking of deadlines, back to my income taxes...73!

Subject: PCMCIA Serial Adapter
Message-ID: <Pine.3.89.9504141005.A21070-0100000@netcom19>

A few of you/us are frequently plagued by the fact that most laptops 
have only one Serial Port [Austin comes with two-800-874-7182].

I saw a "Socket I/O PCMCIA Serial adapter for those looking to make CT 
etc. and rig control work a the same time so during a contest it is more 
difficult to keep your logging straight, especially at 4:00 am.

The sourcs is:
