To take that a step further ¨C IF the VHF
logger could record the TRUE MODE in the database it would be
wonderful!? The contest only cares about noting PH for Phone.?
But when I¡¯m up on a mountaintop running the contest as a QRP
portable, I¡¯ll use SSB, CW or FM.
Later when importing the contest log into AC-Log I need to
edit the mode either SSB or FM.

I have been using the suite of N3FJP
logging tools for around three years and I really like using
it for my contest logging during and the log submission
after the event. Having these available has been a huge help
that I wont use anything else. I do have a feature request
for the sub programs such as the 7QP, VHF, ARRL
International Digital, 10M, etc that appears only in ACLog.?
This week I was shown a demonstration in
ACLog that permits the customization of the fields displayed
and order shown on forms. The functions under settings I was
interested in using in other logging programs that seem to
be in just ACLog are:
Edit Fields Displayed, Position,and Tab
Order
Other Field Titles, and Fill Behavior¡
I bring these two customization functions up as useful
inside the other logging programs such as VHF because I feel
it would be good to have the option to display the frequency
of the contact on the form as the contact is being made.
Currently, the VHF contest form has the frequency field in
the contact details, but that can only be filled in
post-contact, and not easy at scale to determine whichever
QSOs have a entry value of the frequency or not.?
Would you consider adding the settings
functions (above) to future editions of VHF etc logging
programs in the future so if a user wishes to fill in a
field like Other, Frequency, County, they have the option to
do so at the time so they may reduce post contact ¡®clean
up¡¯/reconcilliation?
I greatly appreciate the value of the
ACLog and all the other logging program in the N3FJP Suite
of logging programs and I will continue to use them in my
contest activities long into the future.
