Hi Bob

I use VQlog for logging, SatPc32 to control the rotator and elevation and for doppler on the rig, I have an IC-9100 and  the Fabulatech serial port splitter, everything nearly works OK  SatPc32 control the rig and the rotor perfectly but I don’t always get the uplink/downlink frequencies and mode boxes correctly filled so something I have to watch, apart from that it logs to LOTW etc and many more facilities I don’t use. You can download a shareware version to try out, I have no connection to the writer of the software, Im just pleased with the facilities and satellite logging

So I have a K3 which "generally" Rx's on VHF mode (Downlink)

And I have an IC910 which therefore is usually on xmit on the UHF side
(Uplink).

And invariably I am using, and quite happy with SatPC32 to control the
two radios.

And the latter is done with the help of VSPE to make some virtual serial
ports.

So what program(s) can I use to be able to LOG the xmit and the Rx
frequencies, the Calls, the locations of the guys ... and also
upload/download/match, from LOTW ?

 ....and as a by product, keep track of Grids Countries and the like?

Contesting of any form is not needed.

thank you
