Multiple Logbooks?

in SmartSDR for Mac

I operate Flex radios in several different locations. I'd love to be able to have separate logbooks selectable for each location. I have been entering different grid squares for the different locations, but that is a bit of a pain and I can't print out a list of my contacts by each location.

    Hi Chip, I use ACLog from N3FJP. I can run multiple instances, each with a different location, contest or any criteria that you can think of. You can then occasionally export ADIF files and aggregate them to a master log if you want.

    I am not a big contester, but I often jump into them for a while. I use the contest specific log until the contest is over. This gives me a score and various data about the contest. Then when it is over I just update my main log with the info. Now I have everything in one place for QSL purposes, and individually when I just want to see how I did in the event (typically Field Day).

    I use Ham Radio Deluxe and I have multiple log books as well.

    Thanks for the replies. I was hoping to do it from within SmartSDR Mac. I try to avoid going over to my PC (the Dark Side), but these solutions would certainly work. I might also try doing it in RumLogNG. I also always have MacLoggerDx running as another possibility. Thanks a lot for the input.

    In that case, use MacLoggerDX. It can do everything you ask on a Mac.

    Thanks, Alan. I guess I would have to have at least 2 instances of MLDX running. The ideal has been implemented in the Remote Ham Radio software where you have a pull-down menu to select any of your logs for a particular contact. I can only use that software for one of my radios which is part of their Youth program.
