ONLY contest logging? #6

... cos it strikes me that if you can do all the logging for contests, and can have configurable fields for different contests, then a set of fields for "not a contest" would be really trivial too, then I could use the same software for my day-to-day logs too. ... and if you can calculate different scores based on different contest rules, and perhaps highlight different states/classes/bands that could improve your multipliers... then counting for WAS / DXCC / IOTO/POTA/SOTA and highlighting missing countries/islands/etc would be fairly easy to do, probably under the same rules engine? :raised_eyebrow:

The model for this is established by VKCL which has a "Contest" called "Station Log". I support this model.

I'm as yet unsure how tracking of DXCC / IOTA etc. would be implemented. I realise that this is possible from the logging data, what I'm less clear on is how the user interface might work, and how it might be implemented within the current framework.

I think that it is a useful idea and welcome your thoughts on how this might evolve.
