[Ham-Mac] Contest log for Linux - development started

[Dave Wright]

Dick,

Well, RUMlog works just fine with Fldigi, and I use it for digital
contesting. Just save the log to Fldigi and RUMlog pulls it in; but usually
without the exchange info (that's ok with me as it is saved in Fldigi's
log). I create my contest log submission from Fldigi's log, and I use
RUMlog to track the QSLs.

A new choice is always good and it would be nice to have CQRTest play with
OS X, but without a Mac to develop on, I don't think Petr will be able to
do anything about that.  I sent an older Intel Mac Mini to Dave (W1HKJ) in
the past and when I do my next round of upgrades this fall, maybe I can
spare one to send to Petr as well.
