All contest specific contest functions will be found in the Menu–>Contest menu. Few always existing menu items will be used in the contest as well in a similar manner:

CW, RTTY and Phone memories can be played back using the F1 - F8 function keys. Please note, the menu items for all modes are located in the CW menu.

For each contest/dx-ped a new separate contest file will be created. These are not compatible with a RUMlog logbook file! A contest log can be imported into a logbook file directly, without the use of ADIF.
