[ILQSO] 2003 IL QSO Party Announcement

Mon, 08 Sep 2003 18:38:18 +0000

Hello Jim,

don't know if following really help as I guess better help will probably 
be available from other QSO-party-checkers who do this at a high level 
of electronic logs... but may be You would ask Dietmar, DL3DXX (probably 
good via [email protected]). He is involved from the first start with 
contest checking for all DARC-contests and as I know has worked out a 
very great package for this including special contests like WAE (with 
QTCs) etc.
May be he can tell if it's possible to help / work together etc. in this 
area.

73 & gl, hope to find time and to take part again.
