Downloading the programs

This page contains links for the current and previous releases of the OQP Contest Logger software bundled together in a zip file. To extract the files you will need a program such as pkzip or WinZip.

In the "Other files" section I have included a script that will convert a log file in Cabrillo format to the format used by the OQP contest logger software. This will allow some of you to use the logging programs you may prefer to use while still letting you use the OQP logging software to check your score and generate summary sheet(s) that can be sent to the contest organizers.

Current release

A change was made to the rules of the OQP for 2026 that affect the scoring of phone QSOs. This required a change to the logging programs. Due to the age of the software used to develop the programs the 1.07.1 version was patched to update the table of points per QSO. This patched version has been released as 1.07.2. I think this patched version is safe for use. To be safe, keep your 1.07.1 version around just in case.

Previous releases

Version 1.07.1 of the OQP Contest Logger is for OQP contest logs before 2026 due to a change in the point scoring for the 2026 edition of the contest.

Version 1.06.1 of the OQP Contest Logger is only to be used for OQP contest logs before 2007! It is NOT to be used for the 2007 (or later) OQP contests.

Version 1.07.1 (186k zip file)

Version 1.06.1 (186k zip file)

Other files

A script to convert a log file from Cabrillo to OQP Log format.

In order to run the above script on a Windows machine you will need to have a Perl package installed such as ActivePerl. I plan to create a standard DOS executable sometime in the future to eliminate the need for Perl.
