I don't believe that is an accurate assessment. I used AC Log for
several years in spite of its many flaws, but finally dumped that
lameware when I bought my K3 because it required more than one port and
RS-232 cable to give me both rig data (frequency, mode, etc) and
keying. It even states in the N3FJP documentation that a separate cable
is required for keying.
I switched to Logger32 for general logging and N1MM for contesting and I
haven't looked back since. There is simply no comparison in performance
and features, one cable to the K3 does all, both are free applications
with lots of support, and both programs can easily be configured just as
spartanly as the N3FJP stuff if you so desire.
