Hi,
I am looking to create some sort of easily accessible and searchable
database that will hold basic info
of the approximately 1,000,000 qsos's that I have made since getting
licensed 50 years ago (August 1973).
Ideally, if possible, I should be able to search the database by
callsign, DX country, band, mode, prefix, etc.
Even better would be if I am able to scan written pages with qso's and
have the software encode that info and add it
to the database. (I have thousands of pages of hand-written logs). If
that is not possible, then it should be a database
that allows me to easily manually enter data for each qso and would also
allow me to upload cabrillo files or .bin files or something similar.
I have no idea what options/functionality are available or what it would
look like or what such a database/software would cost.
I also do not know whether or not such a database would allow me to add
qso's made under other callsigns (where I guest operated or operated as
DX) and then separate out the qso's based on the callsign used?
I would ask that responses please be limited to those who have actually
attempted to do something similar and can answer based on actual
experience.
Thanks and 73
Bob, KQ2M
