We are back from St. Barts and the FJ/N0KV expedition and now I have about 110 sat contacts to enter into a logging program then uploaded to LOTW. Question is, what's the simplest logging program (free) that will properly format the adi file for these contacts. We used N1MM for all the HF but it does not seem to have options for entering things like SATMODE, the two bands, and perhaps other data LOTW needs to properly database the contact.
Any suggestions welcome.

I agree with Gabe... TQSL. You can create your new location under your call sign then add multiple QSOs on the same date/satellite, changing time and call sign per each qso and then sign and save an ADIF file for future uploading not only to LoTW, but also QRZ.com and other logging prorgrams. Very simple once you get the hang of it! :-)

Jim, As others have said, TQSL is very easy/straightforward. With a small number like that it is a piece of cake. What's nice is that the info from the previous QSO stays on screen and you only have to change the Call and time for each entry. Saves a lot of typing. TNX for the DX-Pedition!!! 73, Bob K8BL
