Today on SOTA HB/TI-143 Aula my logging program had a failure, all was black and i was unable to continue with logging. So i had to deinstall and then reinstall it again.Therefore i lost about 75 contacts…
So i must relay on Chasers entries to complete my own log.
Sorry for any inconvenience.

This is not to be understood so that any chaser should report at Bruno …
An Activator can easily press the “Show Who Chased Me” button in its log for the appropriate Summit and thus gets a list of all Chasers that have logged a QSO with the Activator …
Paper and pencil, just so reliable in the field. 
Yes, it is - but really my very first problem with a logging program… after 848 activations, not so bad…ok the first few dozen activations were also made the analog way, paper and pencil !!

Hello Bruno,
What log do you use? I send you my log by email, transmit cw, generate adif, etc. try it you will like it.
Today’s qso:
v2,HB9CBR/P,HB/TI-143,12/05/2021,09:20,10MHz,CW,EA7GV,

A couple of years ago on Top O’Selside (G/LD-048) my pencil and paper system failed. It started raining (Really? In Cumbria?) and not only would the pencil not work on the wet paper but what I had already written started to disappear, like invisible ink.
Since then I have invested in rite in the rain notebooks. Thing is, they’re lovely but expensive so I leave them at home and continue to take the cheap notebooks. This is going to catch me out again one day.
Mental note to self: pack both types of notepad but use the cheap one unless it starts raining.
It’s what I do therefore it must be the correct way to do it 
hello Bruno,
We get S2S Yesterday… as says Heinz HB9BCB, man can get “who chased me” there: SOTA Database
73 and many activations.

Hi Gerald
Oui je connais cette possibilité, je vais attendre encore quelques jours et puis reconstruire mon log.
Merci!

QSO mit DJ5AV 10:24 Z 5,353 CW 539 579
I won’t get caught out myself, with what I spend on petrol and gear using rite in the rain is money well spent. I live in Yorkshire but I do not have the Yorkshireman’s trait of being careful with money.
The rite in the rain books are about £6 now. There were some cheaper equivalents by a firm called Snugpack. Same paper different cover. I haven’t seen them for some years. The last ones I saw on sale were in a Keswick walking shop - Terry G0VWP discovered them first.
I’m on my 14th Rite in the rain book now - nearly full. If it hadn’t been for Covid-19 I would have been on my 15th or 16th.
The first rite in the rain logbook page I have found in the drawer where I keep them is dated 05/05/2007 G/TW-003.
23 QSOs completed including a few famous SOTA callsigns worked during a mixed session of SSB first then CW on the 60m and 40m bands, most of these amateurs are still keen on SOTA, sadly one has passed away
05/05/2007 First Rite in the Rain logbook G4OBK:
1856z GW7AAV Steve - took time out to do up a Welsh cottage and never came back…
1857 G4BLH Mike - rarely heard now, got into HEMA/HUMPS
1858 G3RMD Frank - still about - I worked him this week from G/TW-002
1859 G4WHA Geoff - now operates SOTA mainly as GM4WHA
1900 M1MAJ Martin - prolific activator and sometime chaser
1905 GM0AXY Ken - same goes for Ken as M1MAJ
1905 G0RQL Don - always there if there is propagation, SOTA SSB devotee but also DATACOMMS
1913 DJ5AV Mike - CW/SSB still hear him chasing every day - top scorer!
1917 G4SSH Roy - Top CW Devotee now sadly silent key
1920 G0HIO Mike - More often heard activating these days
