Firstly, thanks to Gary AL9A for making the prefill ADIF file available for DX
participants in the ARRL Contest, HOWEVER I would advise caution when using
these files -
I've never entered a contest with them before, but I did last weekend in the
ARRL DX.
In the heat of running a reasonably fast *sustained* pileup (say, over the
200/hr rate) it
can be annoying to have the field prefill, only to find the guy at the other
end has
moved from say, PA to MN ! That few seconds deleting the prefill and typing in
what the
guy actually sent put me out of sync on a number of occasions!
If the rate is 'average', maybe it's not a problem, but really I would say it's
MUCH
better to go it alone and just type in the exchange for yourself. Period.
YMMV
