I use Scott's Amateur Contact Log (ACL) 
 for general logging, and like it a 
lot. It talked to my KX3 and it talks to my K3s.


I bought Scott's entire suite of software licenses, and used a couple of 
contest programs, but did not like having to download and install a 
separate  program for each contest each year. Now I use N1MM+ for all 
contests.


I like the screen layout of ACL better than other logging programs I 
tried briefly. The current-QSO portion of the screen can be customized 
in field colors, font size, and even field placement. The log portion 
can be customized as well; I like to see many fields, so I run into 
screen width problems. Maybe I need a 27" monitor. :-)


ACL has some annoying (for me) quirks that I've asked Scott to fix, but 
he's been busy rewriting most of his software for the latest DotNet 
platform, and the quirks remain.


One annoyance is, when editing a log entry (not the current QSO), a 
separate dialog opens, and pressing ESC to cancel does not work -- you 
have to click the CANCEL button on the dialog. I'd rather just hit a key.


ACL has a "net" feature, where, as NCS, you can quickly log stations 
checked into a net. After they're entered in the "net" dialog, one 
button cvlick saves them all to the main log.


One nice feature is that you can create a comment such as "XYZ Net" that 
is automatically added to each station's entry.


But this comment is appended in the comment field to the station owner's 
name and address from a callbook lookup. Appending the comment shoves it 
way off to the right where is isn't visible in the general log.


Worse, if you decide to manually delete the auto-filled name and 
address, you can't do it by selecting all the text, and hitting DELETE. 
Only the _visible_ text is selected and deleted; you have to do this 
three or four times to clear the field.


There are a few other annoyances, but all-in-all, I'm pleased with ACL.

I've used DX4WIN since it's introduction and it meets my needs.  Have
seriously considered HRD, but inspite of multiple assurances they will add
US county tracking it hasn't happened.  (:-((
