[WriteLog] WL on Rare IOTA Expedition

The Help file index yielded nothing for 'operator', 'mutli-operator', etc., so have some questions.

After about 250 hours of time over the past 2 years spent working on this matter, I plan to be QRV from the #1 needed IOTA in NA (The Farallon Islands) on 2/14 - 2/16/06.  Mike, K9AJ, will now be joining me.  We will use K6VVA/6 to avoid multi-callsign QSO abuse.

Since I will be doing *some* SSB, the plan is to use WL so I can at least have some onboard SSB message use with a notebook computer.

Q:  Should I assume "DX-Pedition" mode is the best setup choice for ALL bands?  If so, I see the bands only go to 50Mhz.  We may have 2m or 440Mhz communication to the mainland, so how do I log any of these QSOs?

Q:  How can we "change operators" and have each op call noted on each QSO line in WL for later review of QSO activity, etc. in a separate database? I guess this operation would be kinda like a "Multi-Single" contest QRV?  I hope this valuable capability exists in WL.

Tnx much, 73 & HNY...

Rick, K6VVA
