Just what I was looking for Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
Love this logger, tried lots of others but for day to day stuff this is brilliant.
Also with the exchange rate being very good against the dollar when I paid for it it was only €13. This is great value for a very useful logger that is very customisable.
I use a rig interface so the log always knows my mode, band and frequency etc. And also use the qrz.com internet lookup feature to automatically fill in the mane, address, state etc of the person I am logging.
I use SD log by ei5di for contests and these two logging programs will cover you for everyday and then contests.

Outstanding Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have had this logging program for a couple of years. The program and support is outstanding. The uploading to LOTW is effortless. I highly recommend this program.

Just what I was looking for. Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Eight years of 5/5 reviews here on eHam says it all. AC Log is an easy to use logging program with many sensible built in features, which can be turned on or off as you need them. AC Log has a very intuitive interface and easy learning curve. AC Log is well supported.

Awsome Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I have used this logging software for a few years now. I have looked at other loggers and haven't found any that can compete with AA! Highly suggest using it.

Really Solid Program Time Owned: more than 12 months.
This is a very good logger with 10 out of 10 support. I have always had my emails answered within a few hours. I've been using this software for several years (I have the entire package, i.e., all contest logs, etc.) and have found it to be easy to setup, easy to use and very intuitive. I've run it on XP and Vista machines. The LOTW upload and download features work perfectly, but I would agree with the other comment that I would like to see it track DX entities by prefix, etc., but this is a minor complaint. This program also works flawlessly with my FT-2000 through the CAT system to track frequency, mode, etc. My SteppIR controller also works through this program (with RTS active) to track frequency changes in order to tune the antenna. The software also has a built in DX cluster mode that allows you to click on a DX spot to instantly change frequency to the location of the DX station. Call book information is also displayed after a call is entered. There are many other great features, and all are detailed on the AC Log web site. In summary, this is a first class logging program that will be an asset to any ham wanting a full featured electronic log.

Excellent Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
I bought the whole package,they all work great. If you have a question just email him and you will get a answer very quickly and he will resolve any problem and answer any question.

Solid logger! Time Owned: 3 to 6 months.
Nice logging program, not all the bells and whistles but it has all that's needed. And it works first time every time. I also use DXKeeper but if I'm in a hurry and just need to get the contact in a log book AC Log is what I go for. Great support also.

No fiddlin' Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
Right out of the "box"....easy...

I'm even going to submit my humble scores in contests now...

My ARRL paper log book is now retired and living in the Bahamas along with my Ford Pinto, and the SB-101..

RIP paper log...1974-2008!

Excellent Time Owned: 6 to 12 months.
I've been using AC Log for almost a year now. Tried many other logging programs but this is the most configurable and easiest to use that I have found.

I don't use all of the features but recently set up the cw macros to work with the Winkey in my US Navigator interface and now chasing the dx in a pileup is simple.
One function key to send my call and one to respond when you get them. Great for dxpedition chasing.

Highly recommended!

A lot of user flexibility Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I've been running HF for almost 6 months now and figured paper logs would work well for me. Then I started working stations I had worked in the past and it got to be a pain to flip through the log book to see if I had worked him before and sent a QSL card. So, I decided I needed a logging program. I tried several (about 7) and none of them had the flexibility I was looking for. Most of them seemed to want you to track EVERYTHING. I'm not after all the awards, I just like talking to people and wanted a logger that I could set to track what I wanted. This one let's you pick which fields you want on the entry form, what order you want to enter them (I set mine up in the same order as in my log book) and what order to display them in the actual on screen log. It also has an easy to use editting process. And best of all - it's very intuitive to use. Like most of us, I don't like to read a lot of instructions, just show me how to start it and I'll figure it out from there. That's pretty much how this one works.
