The Netlogger program is being used by many HF/VHF/UHF nets to track check-ins. A Logger person, who may also be the Net Control person, creates the net and enters the check-in call signs along with other information. Net participants can view the list of check-in and follow the pink highlight, which indicates which call sign is speaking or about to speak. As well, there is an "Almost Instant Messaging" (AIM) window that participants can use to post comments and questions. The program can be downloaded from netlogger.org
