Resources

Here are a few resources that I have found to be very useful and I use them on a regular basis.  This is not a traditional "link page" since these are sites or programs that I use regularly.   I hope that they will be useful to you as well.

 QSL and Logging Information

• LogBook of the World - ARRL's system to confirm QSO's and use the confirmations as credit toward various awards.

• eQSL - the "Electronic QSL Center."

• Global QSL - create and send "real" QSL's online.

• HRD Logbook - this logbook is included with Ham Radio Deluxe 5.  I use this for general day-today logging but use other programs (see below) for contest logging.

• HRDLog.net - this is a web-based logbook that is used in conjunction with the HRD Logbook.
