[TRLog] setting up TRlog

[v31jp@logical123.net]

Hi Rick,

I had some problems with the downloaded cfg file here. This is from my
e-mail to FQP reflector.

First, I found the problem with my CFG file, I removed DX from the
ECHANGE RECEIVED statement, added DOMESTIC MULTIPLIER =
DOMESTIC FILE, and then did a TR READ. As the mode changed,
I then saw the multiplier remaining list change as well as multiplier
total with it's description. Now I know where I'm at.....

What they used was the California QSO party and used .DOM files
for the multipliers. After I edited the .cfg file, I named it 99FQP.cfg.
I start TR in the c:\LOG directory with TR. I comes up and asks
which .CFG file you wish to use, if you have more than one. I selected
the 99FQP and go from there. I expect the new manual will cover these
changes, but you end up with 99FQP.DAT (the log), 99FQP.RST (this
was the old RESTART.BIN) and 99FQP.TMP. This way, you don't have
make a new directory, but you still can. FCONTEST.PAS is
really a reference file. You don't need it. But in your
FCONTEST.PAS you will find the California QSO Party,
the one used for the FL QSO Party.

And, YES, I only worked N4PN on 10 M CW & SSB. If you have other
questions, drop me a note. After my modes Saturday night, TR worked
like a dream Sunday for me.
