[DX] RE: Writelog contesting software

Sat, 11 May 2002 07:12:34 -0700

I am mostly a casual operator who likes to pursue some 'easy' DX.  However,
I am thinking of getting into serious contesting in the future.  I am
thinking of switching from my Excel based log to a more sophisticated one.
Can you provide your perspective of the pros and cons of Writelog for
Windows as it relates to mostly casual use with an occasional contest from
time-to-time.  I would like to have one logging SW program for all logging,
regardless of whether it is a contest or just casual operation.

What export capabilities does it support?  For instance, if I want to export
to Excel, will it do so with out a lot of hassle?
