That's exactly the combination I recommend and use with my K3 (no S)...

Hi Jerry, In regard to: "4) It should have support for contest operating." Most general purpose logging programs have some contesting capabilities, but there are many aspects of contesting that really necessitate the use of a dedicated contest logging program. I would suggest you start with a dedicated general purpose logging program (my preference is DXLab - http://dxlabsuite.com/ ) and then add a dedicated contest logging program (my preference is N1MM - http://n1mm.hamdocs.com/tiki-index.php ). 73, Cliff K3LL/6 -----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Jerry Sent: Saturday, June 04, 2016 12:39 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] logging/k3s control program Now that I have been operating my K3S for several months 'barefoot' (no computer) I realize I need a logging/control program. In searching the interwebby one can be overwhelmed with the myriad of software available. I would appreciate any input for my needs. I apologize if the following are pretty much standard in all programs. 1) I am primarily a dx chaser so a comprehensive log program should include auto matching to notify me if I have already worked a station and keep track of dxcc by band. 2) It should have a field for entering notes (perhaps user defined fields?) 3) It should support cw, rtty & some digital modes - which ones? I haven't a clue as I have never used a digital mode but intend to. 4) It should have support for contest operating. 5) It should be able to auto dump to LOTW. 6) I should be able to export the entire database in some readable form (suitable for Excel, etc) 7) It should be able to fully control the k3s/p3 (or is this something I should have a separate program for?) To me it seems this is the list I need but the problem is I'm not confident that I even know all the right questions to ask :( Any suggestions would be appreciated.
