| Reviews Summary for Paper Chasers Log by N0OKS |
|
Reviews: 13
|
Average rating: 4.4/5
|
MSRP: $FREE
|
|
Description: Windows QSO logging program for DXCC, ITU & CQ Zones, WAS, WAC, Grid Squares, County Hunters, all 10 IOTA Awards and Canadian and US Islands plus more than 60 awards from all over the world and support for Geratol, CCN and OMISS Nets.
Paper Chasers' Log is now FREE. You may also download all of the source code. No support. I have given up on what I thought would be a much more popular program. No suppport is not much of a problem as there are no known errors. Mark, N0OKS

free is in my budget! I've used it for the past 600 contacts.

Time owned: 6 to 12 months

As soon as I type in a call sign, I have the QRZ info on screen. Something that needs to be set up. Also, when I enter the QSO in the computer, it also adds it automaticly to my eQSL logbook. Something that also need to be setup. Further I can export the ADIF file and convert it to the .TG8 file that Log of the World needs. It has saved me a lot of time.

Good Value For Money

Time owned: 3 to 6 months

This program is straight forward to use and is very useful for tracking cumulative records for awards. I'm glad I switched over to using it. I highly recommend it for tracking QSOs, QSLs without too many complicated bells and whistles.

This is a great program. The customer service is responsive. When I changed call signs he had me the new registration software the next day.
Great program for tracking awards. Would highly recommend it as I have been using it for about 6 months now with great results

Best accessory program found 
|
Time owned: 3 to 6 months
|

What can I say that the other reviewer's have not said! For anyone chasing "paper" it is the ultimate program. If a problem or error is found, Mark will respond in very short order to your request for a fix, and takes any suggestion for added features with a revision including the addition within a very brief time frame. Not enough can be said about his support, best in the business. My main logging program is Logic6, and it is written to where you can include many "user" info columns, but to try and do what PCL does in all it's tracking, it'd be too cumbersome and I'd spend too much time filtering and rearranging the print format. That's where PCL comes out on top, easy to use, print functions for each award already set up, no filtering, and as one other has mentioned, no need to always keep the instuction manual at your elbow! Try the demo, and send any questions to Mark. He will respond promptly.

Good Program for tracking awards. 
|
Time owned: 6 to 12 months

My first criteria in testing new software is can I use it without reading the manual. I've been using PCL for over 6 months with over 6k calls logged, (without reading the manual) and am very happy with its ease of use and capabilites. The screen is split with the top a logbook listing of calls and the bottom a detail window. Clicking on a call in the top portion brings up the details in the bottom. The bottom can be used for editing or entering new contacts. US and Candian addresses are displayed in the detail portion making QSLing and county hunting a snap.
PCL's claim to fame is tracking awards and it does this very well. You can track up to 4 awards for each contact. It can produce reports for more awards than I've ever seen in any other package. It can sort your log 16 different ways. It also can produce various types of labels.
Support is prompt and through. Mark has helped me out of several jams (did I mention I haven't read the manual?).
Try the demo version. I'm sure you'll like it.

Outstanding Program! 
|
Time owned: 6 to 12 months

I've been testing this program for N0OKS for some time now, and have found a few bugs, which Mark has addressed and corrected. He has also added many new and additional features that makes this an outstanding value and logging program. I have recomended it to many of my friends and ARLHS club members and they also like it. I have also added a link to his website from my DX clubs site http://sidxa.org . All in all well worth looking into for a paper chasers log or general logging program. And for only $25 you can't beat it.
