[SEDXC] SEDXC 50th Anniversary Contest logging program

[Chaz Cone]

The contest starts at 0800EDT (1200UTC) on Saturday.  Rules at 
www.sedxc.org/50thcontest .  I hope that everyone in the SEDXC 
participates; non-members can only score points by working us...The 
contest is open to everyone and the program handles scoring for 
non-SEDXC members as well as SEDXC members.  All are encouraged to use it!

I wrote a custom logging program just for this contest.  I hope all 
of you will download it and use it.  It was a lot of work (but boy, 
do I love writing code!) and I'd like lots of folks to benefit from it.

It's called DX50th and you can download it from this 
page:  www.sedxc.org/50thcontest/logger.htm

There's a manual that comes with it (I know, I know, no one reads 
manuals but this is a good one with lots of screenshots) that 
explains all the features.  It's included with the download above, 
but you can also download it separately 
here:  www.sedxc.org/50thcontest/dx50th.pdf

I'd like to thank my SEDXC club member beta testers, Ralph K1ZZI, 
Bill N2WB and Hal N4GG for helping me work out the kinks.

In addition to capturing Qs and dynamically scoring the contest 
on-screen, it will print the Summary Sheet required for score 
submission and can create an ADIF file for import into your regular 
logging program and/or for submission to LoTW.

Any questions, contact me by email or phone 770 394 2663.

Enjoy!
