One program which rarely gets a mention when comparing logging 
software is XMLog (http://www.xmlog.com). Free and it does everything 
I want in a general logging program. Excellent ADIF import/export for 
inputting contest logs (in my case SD) and uploading to LOTW and 
eQSL. Packet interface and QRZ.com lookup. CW keyer interface, though 
not used here. Excellent support via a Yahoo group from the author.

But it is a matter of taste what you use. Having used XMLog for some 
time I would not contemplate changing.

What is the form of your on-log? There have been cases where a full 
log is on public view of listeners fraudently using the information 
to generate ficticious listener reports on eQSL. Most dx-peditions of 
course use a look up database which only tells you what bands you 
have had QSOs, not the dates and times. (another possible hot 
topic!).
