Chris, you don't "HAVE" to use the QSO parties software but they are designed to have places for special exchange info to be recorded. As an example: the TXQP software has a place on the screen to record your contacts county. EXAMPLE: Fort Bend is FBEN.
On the N5FJP home page, at the top, you will find a dropdown tab labeled "Contest Logs". With your cursor on the tab, you will see "State Party Contest Logs." This is where you will find the "Texas QSO party Log" that you can download. For the best value I recommend that you purchase the complete package. Details on FJP's home page. Hope this helps, Roy - W5TKZ On Fri, Sep 15, 2023 at 8:38 PM Chris Medlin via BVARC <bvarc@bvarc.org> wrote: > Thanks.
