Field Day Logging

At the club meeting there was a discussion of logging software for the upcoming Field Day. It is possible to manual log a limited number of contacts (ARRL has a paper logging form, but it needs to be converted into a “dupe sheet” for submission). But for most Field Day Participants, using logging software makes sense – especially if you plan to generate a pile-up!

The AARC has typically used the N3FJP software. However, the ARRL Field Day site also lists:

You can see a brief video talk about the N3FJP Field Day software embedded in Bob Pattison’s (K4DU) talk prior to Field Day 2017 at https://youtu.be/0wo5G0WWStk. The discussion of logging software is starts around 13 minutes and 15 seconds into the talk.
