On a reflector that's used mostly for troubleshooting, we don't often see
kudos for what I believe is the very best contest program in the world. I've
done major efforts in all the big CW contests this year, and Writelog has
performed extraordinarily well logging thousands of QSOs and managing my
automatic-switching SO2R station. There are always little fixes and
improvements that can be made to any piece of software, but I would be
hard-pressed to think of any substantial change that would make my operating
more effective or enjoyable. This program has really achieve a high state of
performance.
For any doubters out there, just take a look at K5ZD's performance in CQ WPX
and IARU (amazing feats in themselves) and appreciate how good a logging
program has to be to handle that many QSOs without incident.
I should also point out that Writelog was one of only a handful of
I/O-related programs that performed without some sort of problem when I
converted from Windows 98 to Windows 2000.
Wayne and Ron, thanks for a great job and responding to so many requests.
73, Dick WC1M
(Still, I would like to have an ini parameter to defeat jumping into the log
when you hit the arrow key -- that would defintely add a few points to my
score!)
