Comprehensive Help file.
There are many more subtle features and facilities not listed to make this software even more enjoyable to use, and even more are continually being added by the author..
Not convinced yet?, can't believe that all this is free?
just download and try it, no fuss!
NO LIMITATIONS OR RESTRICTIONS
you get the whole package - what can you loose? - 1000's of happy users world-wide.
This is the screenshot archive. Below are some shots of the software in action, these are only thumbnails and you can click on the thumbnail picture to view a full-sized image.
Winlog32 Screenshots
A screenshot of Winlog32 as most people would use it in 800x600 screen resolution, showing the neat, uncluttered and functional layout that many prefer.
DX Cluster window.
Showing automatic band checking against ancillary databases (highlighted text colour) for DXCC (red), IOTA (purple) and VHF Locator (blue). Restrict to items of interest as required. The lower section (white background) is the actual cluster database, spots can be selectively added by band, searched, sorted etc. The windows are sizeable as required.
QSL Designer.
Integrated QSL Design and printing feature allows users to custom design and print out full colour picture QSL Cards, with data added automatically from the log.
Flexible and versatile, using the designer you can add pictures, logos as well as text formatted for colour, style etc.
Of course for the less ambitious Winlog32 will also print out user definable QSL labels.
Registered Users Feature
Pop-up maps in various scales for most DXCC countries, prefix details, IOTA references etc. I will give this feature to all registered users as a 'THANK YOU' for your support. Around 250 maps are available, I will be expanding this feature as time allows.
For the screen shots use the below link .Ican't seem to include them here
http://www.winlog.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ ... creens.htm
I have been using this program for about 8 years with no problem what so ever.
The one feature that would be nice to have is VHF maps for locator squares but then if youve worked them and they are confirmed you don't need them again
For those that collect SOLAR info this program stores them within WINLOG32
The DXcluster not only works with Packet Radio but the WLNET is great for realtime spots but you must be connected to the internet .
This worth a look
