| # Before the Contest

To use the functions Super Check Partial (SCP) and Similar Call Check you have to load the callsign master database first: Menu->Online->SCP. There are two options available:

- Data from Club Log, includes active callsigns (ca. 230.000) - useful for DX-Peds
- Data from K6TU, includes active Contest callsigns (ca. 46.000) - useful for contests
- Custom - You can import your own text file here. Each call sign must be on a new line. Lines beginning with the # character are ignored.

Both databases are updated frequently.

To start a new contest or dx-ped, select Menu–>Contest–>New Contest. If the contest window open and has the focus, you can open the preferences with Menu–>Contest–>Preferences. Here you have to set the CW memories in the correct order. This becomes importend for ESM operation. You have to enter a key to start the contest exchange message! (non ESM)
