I use Logic for general logging, and either N3FJP or N1MM for contesting.
N3FJP is really cheap, and N1MM is free. I've used Logic since it was
available for the Commodore Amiga back in the early 90's (ver. 2 or so). It
doesn't have a steep learning curve, and is about as flexible as a program
can be. The downside is Dennis gets a pretty penny for it. As a previous
Logic user, you'll qualify for the upgrade even though you haven't dealt
with them for awhile. The one button LOTW and Eqsl upload/download is
great, and it automatically imports the Eqsl pictures. I used it this fall
for the CQWW CW, but this is really it's Achilles heel. It's set up ok for
a casual contester, not for someone that's serious, so I probably won't try
that again. It did ok, and not having to integrate logs was good, but it
isn't as good a logging program as the dedicated contest programs are for
this purpose. May try it again if he makes a couple of changes to this part
of it.
I've looked at a couple of the other general logging programs, but haven't
seen anything in them that lit my fire enough to want to change.
