Hi,

Is there a way to edit the template used to generate the cabrillo files for a context ?
I don't know if i did something wrong (it was my first contest) but the cabrillo file generated for the November ARRL sweepstake contest
Was missing a space between the send section and and the received call sign.

Thanks

JC

No.
Can you post few lines of the Cabrillo log please?

Here is what is generated:
QSO: 7267 PH 2017-11-20 0121 W6IPA 013 B W6IPA 07 SCVW6DR 779 M W6DR 80 SCV

Here is the correct one:
QSO: 7267 PH 2017-11-20 0121 W6IPA 013 B 07 SCV W6DR 779 M 80 SCV

I messed up by actually putting the call sign in log, but it would be useful to have better visibility into the fields that are expected on a per contest basis (from the RumlogNG point of view) and compare to the contest rules.

You put your call and the dx call into the control number. This is not required and not part of the Cabrillo log.
But I know, you have to send it.

Yes, that part I didn't do correctly, but there is missing space between the section (SCV) and the other call sign.

Also, one thing i did not find is how to modify my side after the contest has started, I cannot edit the setting.
