The DogParkList is really not the place for an advertisement for PC=20
software. Most people on this list don't have a PC.

The list description=20
<http://two.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/dogparklist> :

"This list has been set up for news and discussion about Dog Park=20
Software Ltd. products: MacDopplerPRO, MacLoggerDX, MacPacSat,=20
iSpectrum Analyzer and EchoMac."

It's a lot simpler than that Walter

You start a new log for each net. Export to ADIF and import to a master=20=

log.
QSO End is well documented in the manual...
The "Look Up" button sets the QSO start time. The "Log QSO" button sets=20=

the QSO end time.
It really couldn't be much simpler than that.
