I use a paper log for single op portable operating. More reliable than the 
lap top "in the field." Some rovers still keep paper logs. There is a web 
based Cabrillo app. for those who log on paper to convert their contest logs 
to the Cabrillo format by typing them in:

WA7BNM Web2Cabrillo 1.03

Thus the "paper loggers" can submit their logs electronically. A "contest 
log" deadline of 1 to 3 days would be possible.
