CT can be used to log the 7-Land QSO Party using the NEQP (New England
QSO Party) contest. The multiplier files can be found at:
http://www.k1ea.com/dat/
The web site for the 7-Land QSO party is:
http://www.7qp.org/
(the following text is from the 7QP.TXT "readme" file inside the .ZIP archive):
There are two multiplier files in the archive:
7QP.DAT - multiplier file for outside 7-land
7QPSTAT.DAT - multiplier file for inside 7-land
These files must be copied in place of the NEQP files that come with
CT:
copy 7QP.dat NEQP.dat
copy 7QPSTAT.dat NEQPSTAT.dat
The easiest way is to create an empty directory for logging the
contest, then copy the two files as shown above into this empty
directory. This will prevent you from over-writing the real NEQP
files.
When setting up the contest in CT, pick the correct contest name:
* If you are operating inside 7-Land, select "NEQP (W1)"
* If you are operating outside 7-Land, select "NEQP (non-W1)"
If you are logging inside 7-Land, CT will only accept a 4-character
abbreviation. That's OK because it only counts the first two letters
of the abbreviation (the state) towards your multiplier total. Those
outside of 7-Land can log the full 5-character county abbreviation.
Please send me any comments or corrections.
