Are good places to start for Linux ham software.
TLF - TLF is the first text-mode general purpose contest logging program
with full networking support. It directly supports the CQWW, the WPX (M/M,
M/S and SO), the ARRL-DX, the PACC, the EUHFC and the EU SPRINT contests
(SO). It additionally supports a number of more basic contests, general QSO
and DXpedition mode. The output file is TR as well as CABRILLO compatible.
Three keyer modules are now supported. The cw keyer from Ivo, 9A3TY with
output on either ttyS0 or ttyS1, and the (more flexible) cw keyer from Eric,
PA3FKN with output on lp0, as well as the new cwdaemon (ip-) networked keyer
for the parallel port
So this TLF will keep a general log and be a keyer.
