Logging is the recording of a contact between operators. Logging is done by the operators and any listeners.
Minimum details that should be recorded are; callsign, time - typically in UTC, band, frequency, and signal data such as strength and readability.
Logging software makes the task easier.
Some logging software provides control of radios.
Software for contesting can calculate a running score, and produce log files for submission to the contest controllers.
Software for Microsoft Windows or MS-DOS
- KLog Ham radio logging software for linux/KDE. Support of DXCC, WAZ, personal awards, integrated DXCluster client. ADIF default support.
- Logger32 A 32-bit Amateur Radio logging program. Logger32 has been developed to be a highly user configurable general purpose Amateur Radio logbook with computer control support for many radios and antenna rotators. It is NOT a contesting log, although there is no real reason why it could not be used for such, and does not contain some features that might be found in software specifically designed for this activity.
