Are all of us willing to pay a fee for that type of upgrade, including
an "all-contest" template? Nothing is free, and Ken needs to be
compensated for that kind of effort. I'm happy with the DOS version, as
computers are abundant to run it. But, I'd be willing to upgrade my
shack logging computers to purchase this new upgrade. 
I, for one, am ready to shell it out. Gentleman?
