I am interested in what current WriteLog users think might be changed in WriteLog with respect to the comparison in this review: http://www.pvrc.org/Newsletters/feb04.pdf (scroll down to page 8) The
Hi Wayne, I used CT and then NA for 11 years before switching to WL. I tried TR and gave up on it very quickly because I did NOT like the "modes" approach. I found the transition to WL using the CT c

Wayne, my comments are interspersed. While I have never used the N1MM logger, other than brief trials but never in a contest, I have sufficient experience to comment on WL, both single op CW and mult
Here's my $.02 worth.......... Point #1 - I like CQ & S&P modes. I suggested this a couple of years ago but only got flamed by other users on the reflector. As a TR user, once I learned how to use CQ

This one should be a no-brainer. Purely from a marketing and business case perspective, the lack of mode sensitivity is likely the single largest obstacle to getting TRLog users to move to WL. There
I have used WL in both modes in a variety of contests and have never found the current configuration to be a problem. By contrast having used TR and CT the mode issue sometimes interfered with my op
Some comments from a RTTY contesters perspective: It took me a while to get used to WL - now I don't see a need for "modes". Not at all. Leave it as it is. No, but once in a while some hints what wil
Two N1MM Logger features that should be added to Writelog weren't even mentioned in the review: 1. Support for SO2V that mimics SO2R - dual entry windows, dual FUNCTIONAL bandmaps, subrx on/off switc
Hi Wayne, thanks for reading the review and writing this. I will admit that I have not read it myself, but my comments are general enough that it should not matter. With all due respect to Ken Wolff,
_________________________________________________________ May I suggest something not in the review? My only peeve with WriteLog is the necessity to change the .ini file when changing between RTTY/CW
I use WL for RTTY and will make my comments based on that perspective. it A. I set up both modes on the Functions Keys for a contest and they are usually the same for all contests. Keeps things simpl

1. My first logging program was NA which I stuck with until Wlog was in Version 9.27(?). I found the transition to Wlog to be almost painless. It appears to me the author of the review cut his eye te
My opinions: 1. Modes in most software are bad. Run/S&P modes in TR are excellent. More operators will convert sooner from TR to WL and be happier in the long run if you offer TR-compatible mode supp
All, I used to save seperate ssb, cw and rtty writelog.ini. But then I found out I could put everything in one ini file and just switch as necessary. I use this file everyday for DX chasing. And I ha
