This is not a personal attack but what kind of contesting do you do? I
have searched the last 18 mos of ARRL contest logs as well as the CQ
contests for 2002 and could find no entries for wa0bnx. If you want
ultra serious contesting software I think it would be hard to beat CT
under Bochs. For those who don't know Bochs is a highly portable open
source IA-32 (x86) PC emulator. Of course CT (http://www.k1ea.com) is
one of the most powerful and popular contest of all time. Both
programs are free.
If you do vhf+ (grid sq based) contesting check out RoverLog
(http://www.2ub.org/roverlog). I've ported and packaged RoverLog for
OSX. I've found nothing better for vhf contesting. And don't let the
name fool you, RoverLog is not just for Rovers.
