> What functionality is missing from the industry standard logging programs?


What programs, if any, support rover operation without having to start a new 
log file each time you change your grid?

I would like to be able to simply type "NEWQTH" or similar, and enter the 
grid (or county, for a state qso party mobile operation), and be able to 
access qso information, multipliers, etc., from operation in previous 
grids/counties.  And also have the correct overall score available. The "QTH 
MUST MATCH FOR DUPE" feature for NA would become "BOTH QTHS MUST MATCH FOR 
DUPE".

I have been bugging my good friend K8CC for this feature (more for state qso 
parties than for VHF in my case) but it would require fairly major changes in 
the data file (.QDF) structure, so it hasn't happened yet for NA.  Do any 
other programs do this?
