One of the hams running our CW tent used his old favorite logging program and brought along an old DOS computer to run it……. I can’t remember the name of the program but it worked well and he racked up a good score. Everyone was shocked to see the old big DOS computer sitting on the table. I guess one should never throw anything away that works and you are comfortable with it.

I operated entirely battery with solar charging and for several years was able to run the I3S, P3 and the IPAD logging program for the entire 24 hours and end up with a fully charged battery by Sunday noon.

I could not find a program for the IPAD to do that and I don't know enough about computers to know if there is a computer that would do that with N3FJP.
