How does the cheat database work?

Unread post by sa6zgm »

Hi,

In Skookumlogger and N1MM there's a feature that suggest probable signals once you start to write a callsign. Is that what the cheat database does in RUMlogNG? If so, I can't get it to work. I suppose I would really like that feature to work in RUNlogNG :)

The Cheat database shows club member numbers, names, grid squares, States, Provences, etc (if applicable for this specific contest) after you have finished the call sign entry.
I guess you are talking about the Super Check Partial: https://dl2rum.de/RUMlogNG/docs/en/pages/InContest.html
Before you can use it, you have to download data: https://dl2rum.de/RUMlogNG/docs/en/page ... ntest.html

I've just updated the database. You can download it using the Online menu.
