[CQ-Contest] Scoring/log checking software

[Matthew Stevens]

Thanks Mirko, Trent and Franki, W3KM looks like it will work just fine. I've got it installed this afternoon and need to run a test set of logs through it to get a feel for the process. Thanks for the suggestion, there's surprisingly little information out there about this particular subject... That's the only free to use software I've seen - actually about the ONLY one I've seen. Are there even any commercial products for log checking, or do most of the big contest sponsor/log checking teams just write their own?

I wouldn't mind looking into developing something myself, once I get a little more experience with this. But, I guess as long as someone else has built something that works, there's no need to duplicate effort..

73,

I am aware of excellent app which checks cabrillo logs and do almost everything you would need, but at moment I can't recall its name and/or author. CabEval or something similar, (senior moment here)...

>>> I am trying to find some information on contest log checking and scoring software. I'm working on starting up a new contest, and want to avoid manually checking the log submissions if at all possible... It appears that most of the major contest log checkers write their own software, and at least in the case of the ARRL, aren't making it publicly available. Does anyone know of anything out there that I just haven't been able to find?
