IF you connect your radio to a home computer and have interests in radio control and logging for the purposes of QSLs, and will run a mixture of modes, just buy this. If you are a very casual operator and usually mobile with no interests in logging or QSLs, HRD is likely not for you. BUT what I found that if you invest some time in HRD its likely the best thing out there depending on what you want. I did an extensive survey of most control and logging software after my last somewhat scathing review. Just get it, buy it for a year, commit to learning and using HRD and see. In Auto Mode, Directly entering each contact as made, its perfect it makes it so easy that I can't imagine anything better. My only solution has been to set the PC to the Date/time of the Pileup and the Radio to the Freq and leave it in Tracking mode. ![]() If I turn off the Tracking it always resets the Freq, the Time and Date after each entry is put in. My only gripe is I have never found a method to make it stay on a set Freq/Time/Date when Manually entering info from a Hand Logged pileup. Overall it is still 100% better than using some old piece of Win95 Software with an antiqued Interface and has a whole bunch of separate modules that I have to get working and troubleshoot.įantastic piece of software, does so much that I just had to Donate. There should be a Connect Button so that users don't have to wait 40 seconds for a Restart. The only annoying bug I have found is that there is no way to reconnect the Logbook to the Radio unless I select the Restart option. It works but is has just a bit too much stuff in your face. There are few things that I wish they would change, like the whole Interface for the Digital modes. Nothing was wrong with the previous versions but I wanted to have access to all the new features that came out. ![]() I bought the Newer Version and have since paid for two updates to keep it current. I have been using this Software for a about a Decade.
