I like AE6Y's software, too.

However, you must be aware that I've run into certain bugs. Scroll around 
in the log window (when you have no contacts yet) and you can make it 
crash. It will also crash if you switch back from keyboard CW send mode 
to logging mode (by hitting the caps lock key) while it is still sending 
CW. (I don't use the keyboard CW send mode for that reason)

It will also sometimes mysteriously become erratic sending CW -- the 
timing gets all messed up. Maybe it is just this screwy Toshiba laptop I 
run it on....
