The program has a perfectly prepared manual (312 sides) where there are detailed descriptions of all functions and links. It is also possible to have different layouts for classic contests and different ones for DIGI (various examples are in the manual). The most interesting thing is probably the possibility of changing the dimensions and positioning of individual windows at your discretion. Radio control, PTT, CW through COM ports, LPT or USB… Plus a lot, many other features well known from other contest logos. It also supports two TCVRs, two monitors export to Cabrillo format and export/import to/from ADIF. A bandmap for each VFO separately is also a good help, in which QSOs made in S mode are automatically recorded&P and also from the cluster. It can handle full control of most transceivers, switching antennas – even several on one band, multiband… according to the configuration (he does not control the rotators yet, but there is promise in the near future).
It can also be used as a main journal, but for the sake of brevity of individual data, it will probably only be one of the options (it is a contest journal) or for DX expeditions. It stores connections in database files of the MDB type. It also allows the recording of part or the entire contest (approx. It goes without saying that CW keying is supported, RTTY (via MMTTY), TU5PCT QSL, PSK63, macros for all types of operation (also for SSB). The diary supports all major KVs, but also VKV contests (also with the possibility of using transverters), which is an advantage, because you don't need to learn to control two programs (a comprehensive list of supported contests is in the documentation). Installation is a bit more complicated than usual, but a detailed guide is published for it and it can be handled without complications. On Web page a free contest diary for WIN is published. The author of a very nice article about an interesting contest diary is Tibor OM5NU, for which we owe him our thanks, that he was willing to share information with us via CQ.sk.
