Sounds like someone needs to write a good contest application for the Mac!

Don & the list,

OK, I am officially in AWE. Besides the constant updates and immediate=0D
support... I just finished the ARRL November Sweepstakes for the first=0D
time. Yeh, I used an "official contesting program", N3FJP's Nov. Sweeps=0D
thru Virtual PC on a Mac... (sorry Don but it did feel a little like=0D
cheating - honest it didn't mean a thing, purely physical ;-> )

When I was done, I exported the ADIF file, copied it to the Mac=0D
desktop, imported it into MacLoggerDX, bang! All in. But then the magic=0D
happened...

Sure, might be old hat to some of you already and I'm probably=0D
preaching to the converted, but this is the first time I saw "Update=0D
Selected Entries" in action, in bulk. WOW. Right down the list, as=0D
promised, all the info, even photos loaded into place filling the holes=0D
and updating the log and awards page (48 out of 50 states after the=0D
weekend!) (and 3 new provinces "up north", despite no QSO with Agro yet=0D
<G>)

It was a thing of beauty, I had to share... might get those QSL cards=0D
out sooner than I though!

And just a note - any Mac contesters looking for an easy, intuitive,=0D
smooth running GREAT contest software for the Mac, head over to=0D
www.n3fjp.com and check it out.. all you need is Virtual PC, or one of=0D
those "other" computers. And you can STILL use MacLoggerDX for the=0D
master log and every day use!

Thanks Don!

Walter
