Wow! Ask and ye shall receive!! Tnx a million for all the replies to my
  query abt a good logging program!  There are several to choose from 
and
  many were represented by several people. I plan to check as many as I
  can stand that have demo versions available to download.
  
  If anyone else is interested I can post a condensed version with the
  program names and the number of people suggesting each one!?

Message-ID: <1.5.4.16.19960731161923.359ff3fe@pop.atl.mindspring.com>

Can someone give me Trey's address?  Mindspring changed my address slightly,
making it impossible to send messages to the reflector.  I had to
"subscribe" under my new address; now I get two copies of every post.  I
need to drop the first one.
Thanks for any help.

The ARRL has FIVE (5) ways to enter ALL ARRL contests.

Within 30 days after the contest, send your entries via:

E-MAIL -   ASCII summary sheet and ASCII log file
          (following the ARRL Suggested File Format)
           to:  contest@arrl.org

           Merge the summary sheet and log file together
           into one file with an ASCII text editor and
           send on Internet as a text message.

FTP -      ASCII summary sheet and ASCII log file
          (following the ARRL Suggested File Format)
           anonymous FTP to:  ftp.arrl.org

           ZIP the summary sheet file and the log file
           together with PKZIP.EXE and upload your
           compressed file or upload the files separately.


ARRL BBS - ASCII summary sheet and ASCII log file
          (following the ARRL Suggested File Format)
           BBS up to 14.4-k baud

Mailing Address: ARRL Contest Branch
                 225 Main Street
                 Newington, CT 06111


When submitting contest entries electronically, you should include
an ASCII summary sheet and an ASCII log (following the ARRL Suggested
Standard File Format). Dupe sheets and other breakdown files are
NOT needed.

With most of the popular contest logging programs (CT, NA, N6TR, etc),
the summary sheet file is the ????????.SUM and the log file
is <your call sign>.LOG (KR1R.LOG). If you are using one of these
computer program generated summary sheets, be sure to add any missing
information to your summary sheet file (ARRL Section, high power,
low power, QRP, etc). We recommend that you use the summary sheet files
(*.FRM) found on this disk. The *.FRM files have "blanks" for all the
necessary information.

The following is the ARRL Suggested Standard File Format and a sample file.

Refer to your software manual for instruction for generating
an ASCII file in the correct ARRL format.


                     ARRL Suggested Standard File Format
                      For Submission of Contest Log Data


All files must be in standard ASCII format.

All files must be on an MS-DOS formatted disk, 3.5 inch (720-KB or 1.44-MB)
or 5.25 inch (360-KB or 1.2-MB); uploaded to the ARRL BBS (203-665-0090);
or sent via Internet (contest@arrl.org).

The diskette label should clearly indicate the call sign used, contest name, 

entry class, and date of the contest.

The log data file name shall consist of the call sign and the extension 
".LOG".
For example: KR1R.LOG.

The log file must consist of one line of data per QSO (no more than
80 characters wide), without headers, footers, page breaks or other
non-ASCII characters.

All QSO data must appear in each line, aligned by columns, and must include
the following:

        band:  wavelength for HF and frequency for VHF.

        mode:  designator such as CW, PH, etc.

        date:  in MM/DD/YY or DD/MM/YY  format.

        time:  4-digit UTC without colons.

        call sign of station worked.

        complete exchange sent.

        complete exchange received.

        indication of multipliers:  for example an "*", section/prefix/zone, 

          or etc.

        points claimed:  ALL unclaimed QSOs must be "0" points.

        Multioperator, two-transmitter category log in the ARRL 
International
          DX Contest must indicate which transmitter made which QSOs.

        In contests that require rest periods, the "times on" and "times 
off"
          must be in a separate column.

A paper summary sheet is required of all logs, either an official ARRL 
summary
sheet or a close facsimile with a signed contest participation disclaimer.
Entries uploaded to the ARRL BBS or sent via Internet should include a 
summary
sheet file in lieu of a paper summary sheet.

All diskettes become the property of the ARRL and are not returnable.
