desktop pc’s are inexpensive enough now, if this is something your club is going to do regularly, get a new (or newer) PC capable of running a newer version of Windows, and check out N1MM contest software (free).....the learning curve is a little steeper than EQF, but much (much !!!) more powerful for contesting.....rig control, cw sending,rtty,  etc all in one package....of course, that takes the “fun” out of your team concept; the more “automated” you get, the less opportunities for more guys (or gals) to get involved.....
