Wisconsin QSO Party

Unread post by DL2RUM »

There is an issue for the WI-side. When you log a QSO outside W/VE RUMped complains the multiplier, just disregard and log it anyway. Multiplier and point scoring should be okay. I will correct this until the next WI QSO party.

As a member of the sponsoring club, I took it upon myself to build a contest form for the New York QSO Party. It is a few months away, but I decided to start now to make sure I have the bugs worked out.

Here's a few contest definitions I made up over the last day or so; If someone could check them out and make sure they look sane, that would be great. I'm new to both the program, and contesting in general, so I don't know if I'm reading the rules right and/or setting up the contest properly. Some of the options confused me a bit, but I also admit to not reading the manual *completely* before diving in :>

Someone else recently uploaded a New York QSO Party file, but that was for NY stations; this one should be for the DX side if I did it right.

I just downloaded this file (my first that wasn't included in the initial RUMPed) and cannot figure out what to put for locator. Not sure why I am struggling. I have tried VA, FM19, W/VE, etc... all without success. HELP!

Thanks for any ideas, I am having a "moment",

RAC Winter contest file

Unread post by va3nmi »

Hello;

Brand new to RUMped, having been frustrated with my current logging program for contests.

I am trying to make a scoring file for the RAC Winter (which should also work for the sister RAC Canada Day) contest.

The rules are http://www.rac.ca/en/rac/programmes/con ... French.pdf

And my attempt to create a file is attached. I started with a contest that looked similar and hacked away.

Three issues spring to mind, and I'm not how to fix them
1) I don' t know how to have the multipliers work on each band. I clicked the "multipliers count on multiple bands", but no dice...
2) The contest is valid on 2M although I do not play there, and I don't know many that do.
3) Last is that there are certain stations that are higher points (i.e. the RAC sponsored stations). I didn't see a way to have specific callsigns be worth *more* than usual.

Comments and fixes appreciated.

Thanks for the closest thing to N1MM that I have seen on the Mac - wow!
