[TVARC] Request: DX Logging Programs - Recommendations

[James Worthington]

I used DX4WIN for about 20 years and found it did everything I wanted reliably. I switched to another program only because I started using Macs full-time. As the name implies, DX4WIN is a Windows-only application.

In my case, using DX4WIN, I’m able to create a “Selection,” in which I can indicate the dates from which my contacts were in The Villages.  There is also a way to assign a Group # to QSOs, and then select just those.  The chosen selections are then utilized when displaying DXCC, WAS, etc. reports.

I am satisfied with my contesting software so my focus will be on a DX logging program that will keep tabs of not only my band-country totals but also progress toward various awards.  Ideally, the program will keep tabs of some domestic totals like WAS by band, counties worked, Triple Play award among others.
