---------------------------

RFSport.com is pleased to support the Fall VHF Sprints through two initiatives:

1: RFSport Logger is available for FREE download at http://www.RFSport.com
2. If 20 or more people use the logger then certificates wil be made available as PDF downloads.

Notes
RFSport Logger . . .
...is a *real time* Internet scoreboarding system
...will work with both dial-up (caching and uploading) and always-on Internet
...allows editing *during* the event only, locking the log afterward (OK...print the Cabrillo and edit it before submitting it if you must <g>)
...will allow others to see a "callsign masked" version of your QSO's during the event (call signs are "unmasked" after the event is over)
...will auto-categorize your competition by ERP.  People who are in your "class" (+/- 5dB in ERP) will appear as black, higher power stations will appear as red, lower power stations will appear as blue.  BE HONEST about your RF output and antenna gain and operator count (especially if you use spotting assistance) when you configure the software.

Certificates . . .
...if at least 20 people use the system (as evidenced by the online scoreboard) then certificates will be made available to the top 10% scoring stations (Gold Level) and the top 30% scoring stations (Silver Level).

Log submittal:
The RFSport.com logging system does NOT take the place of submitting your log as the event sponsors require.  On the other hand, submitting your log to RFSport.com is as easy as connecting to the Internet after the event is over, and pressing a button to "submit".  That's it!
