Now we are apparently really going to be confused. According to my source who watches this stuff the ua9t/w zone 16 exceptions were removed in a special version of wl_cty.dat at: http://www.k1ea.com/

Well, we >>COULD<< just copy the info off the air instead of depending on crutches in the software to feed it into the log. <BSEG> 73, de Hans, K0HB -- http://www.home.earthlink.net/~k0hb __________
No, if you work a ua9s and log zone 17 then you do not work another zone 17 you will lose the multiplier. At least if you see the 16 come up you can ask or tell the ua9 what zone he should really be
N1mm(and writelog and other logger) users should note that this change is not in accordance with the contest rules and how the log checkers score the results. this has been confirmed with k3est. the
You seem to be saying that, regardless of what zone a station gives or what we hear, we should log the zone the software indicates - assuming, of course, the software interprets callsigns/zones the w
I guess the obvious question Paul is how doest CT keep track. It's a nice comment many of you are making about logging what you hear but it doesn't matter if CT calculates from its own databases rega
It's not a 'CT' thing, nor is it up to ad1c. k3est has stated that ua9s/t/w will be scored as zone 16 no matter what you log. so if you log 17 you will not get credit for them in that zone. David Rob
What I am saying is that the software should always 'suggest' (as ad1c puts it) the correct zone for a station according to the contest rules. If that station insists on sending a different zone I re
Hello, all: OK, this is how it is scored for the multiplier. How does the log checking software work? Am I going to lose the QSO (no penalty for just busting the exchange) if I log what the station s
That is correct, sort of. Log whatever you want for the zone; it doesn't matter. The program that does the scoring removes everything except the band and callsign. It figures out the zone on its own.
you pays your money and takes your chances. Last RDC; A certain UA0 sent K as his oblist. i heard it 3 times. Am I supposed to to enter Kt, maybe because his keyer was acting up? you pays your money
Hello David, Tuesday, October 25, 2005 David Robbins K1TTT wrote to cq-contest@contesting.com: ua9s/t/w Has he? Then I see no sense in exchange numbers in CQ WW at all. It worked that way till now, a
In other words, CQWW is just a callsign copying contest. But we knew that, didn't we? 73, Pete N4ZR _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest@contesting.com h
If that's true, then the idea that this contest is about the skills and talents of RADIO operators is laughable. 73, de Hans, K0HB -- http://www.home.earthlink.net/~k0hb ____________________________
It is true, but I don't think it takes anything away from the skills and talents required to do well in it. It still takes still to run the pileup or skill and/or big antennas to get through the pile
yes, I guess clarification from CQ WW AC is needed here. Possible scenarios: 1. UA9S/T/W sends 59 16. You log 59 16. 2. UA9S/T/W sends 59 17. You LOG 59 16. 3. UA9S/T/W sends 59 16. You LOG (as sugge
The way I see it, you log what they send you or have them re-send to confirm what you heard and log that, its not up to the computer- its up to the operator , and if they made a mistake sending you t
Yes, you can do something about it. you can tell them what they should be sending and help them learn at the same time. I have not seen a response from anyone yet who says they would log zone 22 if a
zone 22 if a kh6 sent it to them... would you? Even if you asked and they gave it to you again?? I would hesitate even if KH6 would claim zone 1, 3,4,5, 8 or 27 but I guess this is all covered by FC
