===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
Log-EQF Version 7 is a powerful, full-featured, and easy to use
logbook program for Amateur Radio operators.
DESCRIPTION: Log-EQF features a menu-driven system, complete
with mouse control. Beam headings from your exact QTH, automatic
reports from previous QSOs, date and time logging (with built-in
UTC conversion), notepads, and a user-defined field make logging
effortless. DXCC country and CQ/ITU zone reports are available
on-line from callsign entries. CW may be sent from 6 memories
or from the keyboard, using the CT serial or parallel interfaces.
Most popular callsign databases are also supported.
Complete TNC support includes a monitor window on the logging
screen, a terminal program, and file upload and download
provisions. DX announcements can be sent and received using the
built-in PacketCluster (tm) system.
Radio interface functions are provided for most popular radios
with computer control capability. Radio frequency and mode are
automatically entered into the logbook from the radio, and the
VFO frequency and mode may be set from the logbook.
Contest mode provides streamlined log entry, dupe-checking,
multiplier scoring, and automatic serial number generation.
Searches, sorts, QSL label and logbook printouts, and convenient
viewing modes round out Log-EQF's versatile features. Other
programs can also be run while Log-EQF remains memory resident -
Log-EQF will relocate into expanded memory, if available.
An extensive 55-page User's Guide is provided on the disk.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS: Log-EQF can be run on any 100% IBM-
compatible computer with at least 512K memory and DOS 3.3 or
higher. The program works with all video adapters, monochrome or
color. A hard drive is recommended, but Log-EQF will run fine on
floppy-based computers if the following files are installed:
LOG-EQF.EXE, PREFIX.LIB, STATES.LIB, and DUPE-EQF.EXE. (DUPE-
EQF.EXE may be omitted if contest operation is not required).
REGISTRATION: The user registration fee for Log-EQF is $30 (U.S.
funds). Registered users receive the latest version of Log-EQF,
along with DXCC, WAS, and logbook file import/export utilities.
Registered users will also receive automatic notification of
future program updates. VISA or Master Card orders can be placed
by calling 1-800-995-1605. The author is a member of the
Association of Shareware Professionals.

===== Installation =====================================
The installation procedure for Log-EQF is quite simple. The
package includes a program, "INSTALL", which automates the
entire process. You will need about 1Mb of available disk space
on the hard drive on which you plan to install Log-EQF.
The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received
Log-EQF.
INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
o Place Log-EQF distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the
appropriate diskette drive.
o Execute the "INSTALL.BAT" program on the distribution diskette.
For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, type
the MS-DOS command, "a:", and then type "INSTALL"
o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
the Log-EQF files to that directory. If you received Log-EQF
on two diskettes, you will need to insert Disk 2 in the diskette
drive when asked to do so. If you so direct it, the installation
program will install executable programs and documentation in
other directories of your choice. It will make no other changes;
specifically, it will not modify your autoexec.bat or config.sys
files.
INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
If you downloaded Log-EQF from a BBS (or received it in the form of
archive files from some other source), you will need to perform the
following steps.
o Extract the contents of the archive file(s) in a temporary
directory on your hard drive. The procedure for doing this
varies, depending on the form in which you received the package.
In all likelihood, the fact that you are reading this text means
that you already have the necessary tools and knowledge to
perform this step. If not, you should be able to obtain
directions for this from the same source from which you received
the package.
o Execute the "INSTALL" program which you have extracted. For
example, if the temporary directory into which you have extracted
the Log-EQF package is C:\TEMPDIR, you would execute the MS-DOS
command, "cd c:\tempdir\", and then type "INSTALL".
o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
the Log-EQF files to that directory. If you so direct it, the
installation program will install executable programs and
documentation in other directories of your choice. It will make
no other changes; specifically, it will not modify your
autoexec.bat or config.sys files.
When you're satisfied that the installation was successful, you should
delete the temporary directory FROM which you installed Log-EQF
(C:\TEMPDIR, in the above discussion), including all its contents.
YOU'RE READY TO GO
Once you've complete the installation, you should consult the documents
(filename extension "doc") which have been installed. In particular,
read at least the "Overview" and "Quick Start" sections of the file
"LOG-EQF.DOC". That document will tell you how to invoke the program,
and will give you other information you need to properly evaluate
Log-EQF. We hope you enjoy the program.
