[CQ-Contest] Cabrillo File Questions for NA-Sprint

[Tom Macon]

You may designate the host station by prepending a "@" to the callsign of 
the host station in the Operators list.  See the "musings" section (fragment 
below).

So if the host station owner also operates, do you put the callsign in 
twice, one with and one without the "@"?

a.. The OPERATORS field is a space-delimited list of operator callsign(s). 
You may also list the callsign of the host station by placing an "@" 
caracter in front of the callsign within the operator list. KH6ND operating 
from KH7R's QTH as KH7X could describe this situation in his Cabrillo file 
like this
CALLSIGN: KH7X
OPERATORS: KH6ND @KH7R

Depends on which version of Cabrillo.

Here are the tags for 3.0:

OPERATORS: callsign1 [callsign2 callsign3...]

I don't see anything to indicate the callsign of the station you operated 
from.

Perhaps you could E-mail one of the contest managers?  There are three
E-mail addresses at the top of this page:
