Free Logging Software?

[Highlander_821]

I see there are several logging programs out there--any free ones that are good? I tried Logger32 and I don't like it.

I have Ham Radio Deluxe.It has CAT control,it's FREE. It takes a little bit of getting use. I have tried several free loggin software and didn't like any of them until i was told about Ham Radio Deluxe. Your opinion may vary.
It has good reviews from eham,try it what have you got to lose

Ham Radio Deluxe +++++

Free, go get it, love it.

Get Google Earth and enable that option with it too, it plots your log entries on google earth for you...very cool.

Ham Radio Deluxe for sure. If you don't have a cat cable hooked up to your rig, get one (they're cheap). HRD has a TON of features other than just logging, but it does logging well, also.

I downloaded DxKeeper. It also has rig control. You can download add ons to make it do the following or just use the DxKeeper logging program without addons all free-

• Transceiver control with bandspread (Alinco, Elecraft, Icom, Kachina, Kenwood, TenTec, Yaesu)

• QSL card and label generation

• Rotator control (AlfaSpid, ARSWIN, Heath, Hygain, M2, Prosistel, SARtek, TIC, Trackbox, Yaesu)

• Logbook of the World and eQSL.cc support (automated bidirectional synchronization)

• Solar terminator display and prediction (shows grey line at any specified date and time)

• PSK31, PSK63 (monitors an entire band and extracts heard callsigns)

• Prefix, IOTA, and Gridsquare lookup and display

• RTTY (dual receive via the included MMTTY engine and a TNC)

• World map display (beam heading, terminator, DX spots, VHF openings, auroral oval)

• CW (generation only) and Phone voice keyer

• Callbook lookup (Buckmaster, RAC, or QRZ CDROMs, or QRZ.com)

• DX and WWV spot collection (up to 6 clusters, filtering, direct QSY with QSX)

• Logging (can be optimized for real-time logging, or for recording QSOs from paper logs)

• Propagation prediction (graphical view of openings by frequency and time)

• Award tracking and submission (DXCC, Challenge, TopList, VUCC, Marathon, WAZ, WPX, WAS, WAC, IOTA, Counties, Maidenhead Fields & Squares)

• Propagation monitoring (auto-QSY to monitor IARU HF beacon network)

• QSL route discovery (more than 100 online sources)

• interoperates with MultiPSK, MMSSTV, MMVARI, MixW($), DX Atlas($), HRD
