[RTTY] LoTW/Makrothen (Contesting)

[IronmanY2k]

I only use one computer, but I do use two monitors.  My SO2R device is the micro Keyer 2R+.  This is a fantastic
 piece of gear.  It has two built in sound cards and only uses one usb port. FSK, CW and phone all work flawlessly.
 It's a bit pricey but well worth it in my opinion.

Andrei, you only have to email the cabrillo log for the Makrothen contest.  For the LOTW contest you upload your log to the ARRL's LOTW.

LOTW "Logs:  Contest logs in either Cabrillo Format or ADIF format should be uploaded to LotW any time after the contest, but no later than 30 days after the contest.  No hand-written logs or any other format will be accepted. Use the following contest names on the "CONTEST:" line of the Cabrillo log file: "LOTW-SSB" or "LOTW-CW" or "LOTW-RTTY". If an adi/adif file is used to upload logs to the ARRL site, then there is no need to include the name of the contest."

Hi Jim

Do you use 1 computer or 2?  Interesting setup.  Don't use WL, use N1MM, 
here but it would be something to play with.

I only use 1 computer here with 2 radios so might be different.

73 and thanks for all the contest Q's.

Jim - fantastic!

I did it; looks exactly like in your screenshot, hi!

Just one question - Do I have to email the same Cabrillo Log to both
Contests?

Thank you
