Good idea Craig....If you, and anyone else who wants to, would bring the  
software install programs over on disk and install it on the  computer, I 
will make a folder on the Desktop called "TEST LOGGING PROGRAMS,  and place the 
logging program in there, it will then be available  for all to try out, 
evaluate, and make a well educated vote. Also, being the  computers are old, 
it will determine if the program can even be loaded on the  computer. John 
and I had to install an older version of N3fjp's Program  because the newest 
release would not install. The older one has 98% of what  the new one has 
though...73,s   Mike...Wb3del

Why  not wait until we put a couple logging programs on the computer before 

we vote on which one to keep.  That way people will have a chance  to see 
the 
features of the various programs and will be better informed  on what they 
want.  I have never used N3EQF so I would like to play  with it before I 
vote.  BTW I'll also miss the next meeting as I'll  be in Florida.

Have to  apologize here. I am overstepping by assuming that N3FJP's   Master
Logging Program be used by the Club in general. If there are   other
suggestions or preferences out there for our Master Log, and  we  have 
already heard
some, then perhaps it would be best to  discuss and make  a decision/choice
at the next meeting. I will be  away on vacation that week and  will miss 
the
meeting....SOOOO. May  I place an absentee vote for   N3JFP's??

GM All...Just a reminder...We have two contests we plan to  operate  in this
weekend, Jan. 18-19..The North American QSO  Party-SSB and the ARRL  January
VHF Party. Depending on attendance  for the SSB contest, we could  consider
using 2 stations. So please  try to contact me if you intend  to operate 
this
one. I would have  to try to get the logging program  installed and working
in the  associated computer. For the time being, I intend  to use the  N3FJP
logging program for the SSB contest, as we did for the CW one   last 
weekend.
For the VHF contest, N3FJP also has a program, but fine  if  whoever is
working it wants to use a different one as long as  he, (or she),  can 
integrate
it into our N3FJP Master Amateur  Log when the contest is  over.

I do not see anything of interest  the w/e of 11/25-11/26, but if  anyone
sees one they would like to  operate in, post your interest so we  can all
consider to possibly  join you. Below, if you do not have it, is the  link 
for
the  whole years Contest Calendar...

_Contest Calendar: Home_  (http://www.hornucopia.com/contestcal/)

Looking forward...Feb. 1 - 2  there is the 10-10 International Winter
Contest-SSB. Do we have a 10-10  number?

For those of us that are single (or married), Feb. 8-9 the  YL-ISSB QSO
Party-CW (LOL!). Don't see much else those first 2 weekends  of Feb. Does
anyone?

Feb. 15 - 16 is a big one...ARRL  International DX Contest-CW. Followed
March 1-2 with the SSB one.I hope  we can have a lot of participation  in 
these
and have several  rigs running. Even if you are not a CW man,  come down and
help  log!! No CW necessary. Whoever is operating will give you  the  
contact
exchange and call to enter..Very easy! Same goes for the  SSB...Do  logging
if you are not into contesting.

Fingers are  tired...73's...Mike...WB3DEL
