[CQ-Contest] Contest UTC Local Visualizer...

Thanks to Jack - N8WAV this new tool has taken a quantum leap forward in 
design and flexibility. I have uploaded Version 0.0.8 to the website. I will 
be adding an Instruction/Overview sheet in a future release, but for now it 
covers the weekend events.

There are 8 columns for contests running during any single weekend. You can 
enter start and end times, the worksheet color code and labels the 
appropriate contest time column. To see how the sheet auto-adjusts, copy the 
3-cells for the NCCC Thursday night Ladder event into the last column. The 
entire sheet will readjust to accommodate this new information. When you 
delete the NCCC Ladder entries, the worksheet will revert to its former 
configuration.

Thanks for the helping hand Jack!

I received some good feedback and expect to apply suggestions that were 
offered.

An important thing to know is the MARAC contest runs the full 48 hours this 
weekend. I corrected this and posted Version 0.0.6 to the website. You will 
always find the most current version posted with a Version # in the 
filename.
