[Elecraft] QSL software for Macs

[Lewis Phelps]

MacLoggerDX, which IMHO is far and away the best logging and rig control software available for the Mac OS X platform, generates QSL cards directly from the log entries. You link it to a picture, and it lets you select several design options (e.g. print is boack or reversed out (white), and cal sign at top or bottom.  It's important, for it to work well,to provide a photo that has the same proportions as the card itself. Otherwise it will stretch the image to fit, and you end up looking like something from a funhouse mirror.

It's also easy to create QSL cards using any modern word processor. As a Mac user, I prefer Pages to Micro$oft Word for manipulating graphics, but YMMV. 

The nice thing about MacLoggerDX is that you only have to type the QSO information once -- into the program's log -- and not a second time into a separate QSL card program. 

See you on the net in a few minutes.
