Its OK Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I could never get the DX spots to reflect what N1MM was showing on their DX cluster- yes I used the same cluster for both.
The sizing when adding the DX spots of the general log looked tiny.
I went to the group messages and received help from the developer- still not as nice as N1MM for DX spotting.
I am sure for general logging it is an excellent product though.

Networking Field Day computers, simplified! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
We've used this for over a decade for contesting and FD. One of the easiest to network a bunch of computers, and it warns of DUPES, lets other's know how eachother is doing, so it's great for contesting.

Perfect! Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Our group has used Field Day and ARRL 160 Contest logging software and both worked perfectly.....well worth the minimal costs.

Scott's software reminds you of CT, the grandaddy of contesting software.....CT was unstable and prone to crashing, but Scott's logging software is simple to use, simple to learn and very stable.

Scott responds to user input, just email him and you will receive an answer the same day....

You won't be disappointed with N3FJP contest software....

Update: I chose to buy Scott's complete suite of logging apps and it was an excellent choice for me. I just downloaded his CQ WW WPX contesting software, applied my code and I was ready to rock...made my typical 3 Q's...HI HI

Again, whenever I sent Scott a question about his software, within an hour I'd hear back with a helpful answer.....

Amazing Loggers Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I've been using ACLOG and a few of the contest versions for many years. Intuitive, easy to navigate. Every feature I could possible want is in it: Multi-rig interface, interfaces with WSJT-x for FT8 logging, online "callbook" interfaces, QSL/Award tracking, LOTW interface. The list goes on and on.

Scott and Kimberly keep updating the software with new features...at no additional cost. No - it's not HRD, but neither is it bloated like HRD and other way more expensive logging suites.

Highly recommended!

Very competent programs Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I got the $50 package, which includes the
ACL and all the contesting logs. The contesting logs are easy to use. The formats are uncluttered and easy to navigate. My only criticism is that the contest logs do not record and transfer the QSO information to the ACL as thoroughly as I would like.

For example, the CWT contest log does not record the state of the other station. So, when you import the CWT file to ACL via an ADIF file, you will not know the state of the stations you worked during the CWT session, unless you look up each one individually and edit the entry to show the state. If you don't do that, you may not be aware of all the states you have worked, and all the bands on which you have worked them. (ACL has a function to do just that for entries that show the state worked.)

Knowing the state is not necessary for CWT purposes but is very good to have for purposes of WAS.

Interestingly, the CWT file records the frequency of the QSO although the CWT screen shows only the band. The Winter Field Day log, on the other hand, records the state worked and this information will be exported to ACL via ADIF file, but does not record the frequency of the QSO.

Overall, the contest programs are very good and the ACL and contest package is quite a bargain. For operators concerned about WAS, however, they fall just a little bit short of perfect.

Exactly what I was searching for! Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
I recently discovered that my last logging programme was wearing me down, so I searched this site for a replacement.
After investigating the many on offer I opted to take on board Scott's offering, and I am so glad that I did.
This logging programme was up and running in quick time and it is truly fantastic, on emailing Scott enquiring how to personalise part of the layout, he returned not only with the answer, but supplied an excellent video, thus eliminating pilot error on my behalf.
The answer to my above question also opened up many other tweaks that I can make to suit my needs.
Well done Scott, I am delighted with the programme and your assistance, I sometimes have to be steered in the right direction!!!!

Many thanks................

Awesome plug and play suite of programs Time Owned: 0 to 3 months.
After three years trying to figure out N1MM, I finally decided to look into the N3FJP program. It's actually a whole suite of programs. Wow! Talk about plug-and-play. The dreaded paperwork of ham radio paper logs and inputting to endless state QSO parties and LOTW is gone, the joy is back. And I feel guilty only paying $50 for so many programs, with unlimited future upgrades. You can have open several state QSO parties, and enter contacts in each log, as you make them. Then tell it to make a Cabrillo file. Easy! Upload contact log to LOTW. Easy!

Great Logger and Contest Suite Time Owned: more than 12 months.
The logging program itself is terrific. And when you throw in the contest modules, it's even more a winner. The logger is so easy to use and effective on a daily basis. Then if you want to enter a contest and log it and report results, you're in business. Name a contest. It's there in the suite. The customer support is second to none; every product ought to have this kind of support. Terrific logger and contest suite.
