I've used N3FJP's VHF program for years now.  I operate as a rover and 
paper log during the contest.  The program has a post contest mode that 
makes entering a paper log easier that most programs.

However, unless it's been changed recently, the program will not allow 
to log dupes.  You have to enter a phoney call and then go edit the log 
file to put in the correct call.  I believe all the major contest 
sponsors recommend you log dupes.  It also easier and faster to just 
work'em again that to explain they are a dupe.  As a rover I get a lot 
of dupes especially if I enter a grid for the second time during a 
contest.
