Hi Mel,

I'll give it a look, as well as some others.  Maybe I'm just too
"comfortable" with LOGic, or I "think" I'm too comfortable.

Haven't gotten any further with Hamscope, have you had any news recently ??
I sent many e-mails off to the Hamscope author, but been having problems
with e-mails getting bounced back.  Last night went to the Hamscope
reflector group and asked if anyone knew of problems with the
[email protected] address, apparently there are some problems.  I will be
sending another e-mail off to them today to another address suggested from
the group.  I'll let the group here know whats up.

Later,

73, de Brad, N8GLS

I've used a number of contest loggers over the years and Logic is by far the
worst!!! Brad, if you enjoy contesting, try one of the free loggers such as
N1MM... There is a learning curve associated with them, but you will quickly
learn why nobody who is serious about contesting uses Logic for that
purpose.
