Scott,

There is no setting in the COUNT POINTS BY field that will accomplish this directly. This would require the addition of some code to NA which would be no big deal, but then participants would have to have the new version.

One possible workaround is to choose the selection for CW = 2 and SSB = 1, then set the power multipliers (QRP, low, high) to 2, which would accomplish the same thing. If the contest DOES have power multipliers, then these could just be doubled.

Participants will never know the difference. The QSO points shown on the screen have the power multipliers included.

I am editing the templates for the Louisiana QSO party ( http://www.laqso.w5yl.org/ )that is upcoming in February. Another club is sponsoring, and has slightly modified the rules.

In particular, CW qsos will count 4 points each, and SSB qsos will count 2 points each. Which setting in the COUNT POINTS BY field will accomplish this?
