how do you all get your spots to find the w1aw and other stations? I have a mac, so I prefer rouse that for logging if possible, but I am willing to use windows xp if that is better or cheaper, as longs I can use nvda with the windows software. I prier a free easy and simple program,but I would like it to handle logbook of the world. I am sure this topic has been covered before, but I have pretty much  let them go by until I realized that I really need a logging and LOTW solution.
now if the thunderstorm would go away
