In the beginning of my amateur experience, my Dad, Fred - WB3DLV (a Silent Key who LOVED CW), and I used index cards to keep track of our contacts. After I started computer programming, I knew I wanted to create a program that would perform all the functions my Dad and I used to dream about when I was a kid.  The result of this dream is Amateur Contact Log.

Not only have our ideas been included, I have also incorporated many of the fine suggestions I have received from thousands of AC Log users around the world. I can't thank everyone enough for your ideas, support and kind words. I am grateful for all the positive response I have received concerning AC Log, and very thankful for the friends I have made as a result of it. I hope you enjoy using AC Log as much I enjoy creating and supporting it!
