Todd and Company
Here is a second approach to the BERU which I might try out this year.
This is based on the KISS principle as far as the program is concerned,
but the operator is responsible for the inputting of the WYSIWYG
prefixes. As you go along the score is 5 X the number of QSO's plus
20 X the number of Multipliers.
The CFG file:
MY CALL = VE3xxx
CONTEST = ARI
DISPLAY MODE = COLOR
CONTEST NAME = COMMONWEALTH CONTEST
EXCHANGE RECEIVED = RST QSO NUMBER AND POSSIBLE DOMESTIC QTH
QSO POINTS DOMESTIC CW = 5
QSO POINTS DX CW = 0
DOMESTIC MULTIPLIER = WYSIWYG
DX MULTIPLIER = NONE
VISIBLE DUPESHEET = TRUE
COLUMN DUPESHEET ENABLE = TRUE
MULTIPLE MODES = FALSE
How do you input the prefix bonus pointers? It is easiest to just
put in a short log printout to illustrate:(SORRY ABOUT THE SPACING)

Give it a try. No special CTY's or DOM's. Just keep your wits about you
and throw in prefixes in the exchange window to see what you need for
bonuses. The visible dupesheet helps too.
CU in it.
