I understand your particular concern Paul, but w.r. I think you're missing the point here.  Nobody (yet) is pushing me towards a particular radio, antenna, gimmick, etc. and I'm not (yet) asking for free contest software, only some help for the manual operator who, cardboard dupe sheet in hand, has made a stab at working out his score, signed his photo-copied cover sheet and is preparing to create his copperplate entry log.

Nothing fancy is needed, because the organiser's s/w already scores the entry, finds dupes, etc., just an editable means of entering date/time, call, report (with default) and serials, providing an output format that results in minimum hassle for the adjudicator.  A small subset of SD could work here :)
