Topband: Slight changes to the summary sheet input for the upcoming QRP ARCI Fall QSO Party

[James Rodenkirch]

G'day all: the below "changes" - a few more entries to include in your summary sheet - are the result of a review of what the summary sheet contained and the need for additional summary info; info the contest manager might glean from an entrant's log but is more easily extracted by the entrant.  

While rummaging through previous contest entries, it was discovered that pertinent and germane data/info - e.g., QSO totals, differentiation between members and non-members - were missing or inconsistently reported.  Given the small numbers of entries for any given ARCI contest, expecting logging programs out there to take that additional requirement was un-realistic. 

So, to assist me in getting through all of those summary sheets in a reasonable length of time I am requiring a little more information in the summary sheet submital than was originally identified.  You can check the QRP ARCI web page for the required information, found in sections M and N of the current rules posting for the upcoming Fall QSO Party.  However, I am taking the time to provide you an advanced copy of what the summary sheet must contain:

Your Call Sign
Entry Category (see section J of the posted rules at the ARCI web site)
Total # of QSOs  with members
Total # of QSOs with
non-members on different continent
Total # of QSOs with non-members on the same
continent
Total # of SPCs worked
Actual
Power
Station Description
Final score calculation (see section G of the posted rules for the "how to")

Regards, and thank you for your participation in the upcoming QRP ARCI contests/events - it will be fun and we're working towards higher entrant participation numbers over the next year of events to prove that the "fun factor" is increasing the numbers of entrants.
