How Paul logs while operating pedestrian mobile

Many thanks to Paul (W0RW) who writes with the following tip:

It is a little cumbersome to log your contacts while walking along the trail. For logging and a Dupe Sheet (used in contests) i use a small NFL Type Cuff Log.

You have seen all the Quarterbacks have their ‘Play List’ on their arm. They are on eBay at:

The NFL Play Lists (Cuff Logs) that are on eBay are
‘Read Only’, mine is a ‘Read/Write’.

You have to make your own to be able to write on it.

Mine is a little 3 x 5 card on a metal plate with 2 elastic bands that strap to my left arm.

The metal plate gives me a good writing surface.

There is also a little goose neck LED light that is clamped to the top for Night Ops.

The muff log winterized option!

Thanks for sharing this, Paul!

  1. Thanks to Paul for sharing that! A great idea for /PM operation.

    I got a kick out of that carpet-remnant hand-warmer. Jim- W1PID- mentioned that his wife had knitted him a’ Morse-muff’. I mentioned it to my wife, and the two women got together on it. Sure enough- I now have my own Morse-muff for cold-weather operation. 🙂

  2. I really like the idea of the Wrist Coach. Admittedly, I still use a QCard for reference on my keying. It helps. They say: “A sharp pencil, beats a dull memory.” And with practice, eventually I’ll get there…

    Thanks for the tip, it’s given me some ideas. 72 de W7UDT
