[CQ-Contest] HamCation QSO Party

[jimk8mr at aol.com]

We'll have FAQs out covering lots of these questions.
But meanwhile, we don't really care if you use C or F. If you're Canadian, we'll guess C.
I don't know morse for "-" ,  but I'd suggest using "N" for negative temperatures, i.e.  " N 10" . We have a N1MM+ UDC module that will accept "-" in the temperature field. And since we aren't taking logs, it won't matter what you log.
Just please don't confuse us by combining negative temperatures with cut numbers. We won't know for sure if  "N N" means 16 F or a record (Fahrenheit) heat wave in Canada   ;-)

Chris, 

 

Temps in F or C?

 

What about negative temps?

 

Mike, VE9AA..working with Celsius since the late 70's and it'll def be in
the negative temps in Feb here and elsewhere in the world.
