[Elecraft] Elecraft QSO Party Software

[Bob Patten]

As previously posted, the rules for the EQP have been re-written for 
2006.  Some of the changes, mainly the format
for sending Elecraft serial number, was done so that existing software 
can properly score your log.  Software known
to support the ARCI QSO Parties, and therefore the EQP include NA and 
TRLog (DOS) and N1MM Logger (Windows).
I've written a template file for NA (the .CRT file) so that it will 
correctly score the EQP.  If you are going to use NA and
wish to have this file, drop me an e-mail and I will forward it to you.  
If you are going to use either TRLog or N1MM,
set up your log for the ARCI QSO Party.  Some final tweaking of your 
summary may be necessary following the contest.
Other loggers will also work, but will require additional tweaking of 
the summary.

I will likely be in Freeport, Grand Bahama on business next weekend when 
the EQP takes place, but will try to participate
at least part time if possible.  My Bahamas call is C6AKQ.  If the trip 
doesn't take place, I'll participate from home in both
the EQP and SOC Marathon Sprint.
