TR-Log does not score this contest correctly.

The reason that it does not socre this contest correctly is
that the ARRL FD event has _many_ variables that affect the score.

Such as:

How much output power you were running.
If you used batteries.
If you made Satellite QSOs etc....

Since you do not send in logs to the ARRL the points in the log
do not matter.

Scoring this contest is easy.

Go to the ARRL web page and get the summary sheet form:

http://www.arrl.org/contests/forms/


Fill in the blanks.

TR-Log's POST program can tell you how any valid QSOs you have.

Send the summary sheet to the ARRL along with dupe sheets.
