Hi !

I tried with the last CABRILLO.EXE (Feb 11th 2001)

Very simple way to make a good SCC RTTY Cabrillo log in WF1B :

Temporary edit (or add) the following line in your RTTY.INI (you will find
it in your WF1B directory) file before the contest :

Qth=87

The number in line is last two digit of your license (eg. 87 - 1987; 99 -
1999, 00 - 2000, 01 - 2001 etc)

- run cabrillo.exe
- select your category
- select the ARRL-RTTY as the contest
- select your SCC BIN file as input file
- generate the cabrillo file <CTL-ENTER>

Once the log is generated open it with the any simple text editor (NOTEPAD,
WordPad...) and edit just the Cabrillo header - replace ARRL-RTTY with SCC
RTTY.

The header and log should looks like this :

START-OF-LOG: 2.0

Hope that helps !
