Subject: [WriteLog] WriteLog ARRL DX CW Contest prefill file

I have generated WriteLog ADIF prefill files for the ARRL DX CW contest and posted them to my club website, the Eastern Iowa DX Association. This link takes you directly to the Prefill section:
     < https://tinyurl.com/WLprefills >
What you will download is a zip file containing the ADIF prefill files, which have the file extension ".adi".

This zip file contains two prefill files:
  1. DX callsigns and power (ARRL_DXCW_DXCalls.adi)
  2. US/VE callsigns and states (ARRL_DXCW_USCalls.adi).

The source for this was the file ARRLDXCW_USDX-002.txt from the N1MM+ web site, last updated February 16, 2021.

After unzipping the ADIF file, start WriteLog and start a new log for the selected contest. Open the WriteLog "Tools"
menu and select “Preset Exchange from ADI file…”, browse to the location of your ADIF file and load it. To test it, type a callsign from the ADIF file into the callsign field, press "space" or "tab" to leave that field upon which the received exchange field(s) should automatically fill with data from the prefill file.

As always, the accuracy of the data in this file cannot be guaranteed; treat it as a "suggestion" and be sure to log what your QSO partner sends!

73,
Craig, K0CF
