Hi Mike,
I am FAR from being ANY sort of a "computer friendly" kind of a guy, believe
me...!
But I have found "SD"---by EI5DI---to be THE easiest computer logging programme
to use:
http://www.ei5di.com/
Newer versions will cost you, but the older ones (which I believe you can still
download) are free...and I have used them successfully many times in the past
for a number of 160-meter contests...
Good luck, & vy
