As Don Argo pointed out below I am not a MacLoggerDX user and my opinions
are based on a limited trial run of an earlier version.  At that time it was
an excellent logging program with some contesting tools. It was not a
contesting program. I still log my DX and QSOs using the old ARRL Spiral log
book and have no desire for a computer based logging system.  When and if I
decide to change, I will take another look at MacLoggerDX.

Please do not interpret my comments as anything negative about MacLoggerDX.
It is an excellent program for its intended purpose.
