Hi Jerry

I have used Turbolog 4 for many years and this covers all of your requirements 
except full rig control. However, my experience is that it is better to use a 
separate dedicated program for contests. I use SD for all contesting and it is 
very simple to export the SD log to TL4.

BTW I always get immediate responses from the designers/purveyors of both 
programs to any problems or queries that I have and both continue to be updated 
regularly.
