[WriteLog] RE: Setting up for FD

[Vic Gauvin]

In addition to the previous Entry Window suggestions to KU7T for FD, there's
another idea that can make what goes in each field clearer:  Relabel them to
what they are.

This is done using the same Contest / Exchange Format Setup window.  There's
a field near the top that is the display name for the Entry Window field.  I
changed RCV to CLS for Class (since it's only 3 characters), and QTH to
SECTION.  Along with the other suggestions, you now just have three clearly
named fields to deal with.

BTW, if you didn't notice it in an earlier thread, the RCV (or CLS) field
does not evaluate your entry to determine if it's a correct class or not.
It's free form, so you can put in 0Z (zero zed) if you want.  So watch out
for this one.

Good luck in FD.  We'll try to work you on all HF bands and modes. And we're
using networked WL for the first time as well.

Subject: [WriteLog] Setting up for FD

Hi,

I am new to WriteLog, just played for 30 mins with it and my questions are
probably simple to answer for you:

I selected ARRL FD as the contest but my QSO entry windows displays [CALL,
RCV, QTH, COUNTRY, C].   I am not sure where to type the info for a station,
which will be something like [CALL, RST, 1A, WWA].  Well, CALL is clear, RCV
is probably RST, but where to the other two imporatant info go?
