Allan,
WriteLog CAN produce DUPE SHEETS.
Dupe sheets are not required for electronic logs, in most cases. I am under
the impression, however, that PaQP is reviewing logs manually, thus their
requirement for dupe sheets. I played it safe by mailing PaQP the log (ARRL
format), dupe sheet and Summary Sheet that were created by WriteLog
(v10.36G).
1. To generate the DUPE SHEET:
1.1 From the MENU bar: File | Export | File version of dupe sheet...
1.2 Be sure to remember where you SAVED the file so you can retrieve it.
1.3 I named my file <WB6BWZ.dup>. It is in ASCII format.
2. To generate the LOG:
2.1 From the MENU bar: Contest | Save as ARRL format...
2.2 Be sure to remember where you SAVED the file so you can retrieve it.
2.3 The default file name will be <CALLSIGN.LOG>.
This is NOT a Cabrillo file. Therefore, a SUMMARY SHEET will (usually)
be required for entry information, e.g., Category/Class, if scoring is NOT
being done by computer.
3. To generate the SUMMARY SHEET if you prefer NOT to use the OFFICIAL ENTRY
FORM <http://www.nittany-arc.org/summary_2002.jpg>:
3.1 From the MENU bar: Contest | Create Summary Sheet...
3.2 Be sure to remember where you SAVED the file so you can retrieve it
later.
3.2.1 The default file format is *.rtf.
3.2.2 It is best to select ASCII <*.txt> for most contest submittals.
3.3 I named my file <WB6BWZ.sum>.
3.4 My summary sheet opened automatically in WordPad (WinMe).
3.4.1 EDIT required information.
3.4.2 The v10.36G shows K3YTL as the Special Events Station. You may change
this to W3FRC (two places, I believe).
3.4.3 The cost for the "Coffee Mug" award must be changed from $8.75 to
$15.00.
3.4.4 The cost for the "Worked All 67 Counties in the Party" must be changed
from $25.00 to $29.00.
3.4.5 At the bottom of the form:
3.4.5.1 "Send to..." should be changed to: PA QSO Party 2002, c/o NARC, P.O.
Box 614, State College, PA 16804-0614.
3.4.5.2 "Deadline for mailing..." should be changed to: November 16, 2002
The above procedure should be verified for correctness by others.

OK - so no email log and no disc log, but they seem to want a dupe sheet.
Writelog doesn't seem to wanna produce one, unless I'm missing something
somewhere.
