Sounds like it might be RF. Have you tried using lower power? I know that I get all kinds of wierd things when I run rtty at more than about 40 watts on 15 meters. Steve, AI3KS

I just purchased a Winkeyer. Have it configured OK. In CalQSO I clicked on Winkeryer in CW setup. Keyer works ok for about half and hour, then I get a message that Access To Com1 is denied. Go back into WinTools and
it shows as Com3. Go through setup again. Keyer works for about a half hour or less, the Access To Com1 is denied. What am I doing wrong. Thanks, Ron, K6JTA

Thank you Steve. This is not a rule that I am not accustomed to for in-state operation, and I don't like it either. But the rules are the rules. Thanks again and good luck, 73 de Joe KJ8O

From the rules page: "MULTIPLIERS: A. California Stations (Maximum of 58 Multipliers) Count U.S. states (50) and Canadian areas (8): MR, QC, ON, MB, SK, AB, BC and NT where:
Note: Although the “CA” abbreviation is not used as a multiplier in this contest, the first valid CA county logged will count as the multiplier for California. California stations must log all CA contacts with their 4-letter county abbreviation; everything else as two characters, including "DX" for all stations outside of the U.S. and Canada." If I am reading this correctly, it looks like CA stations only count for QSO points for in-state stations, so the calculation is correct. Steve, AI3KS

CAQP software
Joseph Miller
Hello Scott, Maybe I messed up somewhere but I am using the in-state version of the Cal QSO Party software. As I send this, I have contacts in 4 states and 6 counties and 10 contacts. My score shows as 80 (20 QSO points X 4 states). Shouldn't it read 200 (20 QSO points X 10 states and counties)? Just wondering. 73 de Joe Miller KJ8O/W6 since 2018

Issues with Editing Fields Displayed, etc..
I am pleased to report with Thanks to Forum users, I have been able to correct the problem. The main form file was, apparently, corrupted...my first clue should have been its displaced "Comments" field location-- askew in the middle of the entry form. After exporting the ADIF data and reloading ACLog, the form look as it should; importing ADIF data brought all previous QSOs back, perfectly. Thanks to all, 73, W1JHG -- -Jim James H.

As I understand it, I would just instruct the stations to simply log me three separate times with each county (unless their SW can log it in one entry).

Re: CA QSO PARTY LOG
Tim; How do we know you are in 3 counties in one transmission without you doing a “laundry list” in each transmission? This question really belongs on a different thread than Scott’s, but actually presents some logging problems with us out-of-staters. How can you be in three counties at once? Dale K8TS

CA QSO PARTY LOG
Hi all,
I'll be in the CA QSO Party this w/e - i notice that clicking on the CA CNTY in the list populates the CNTY field with, e.g., "Los Angeles" and not the prescribed cnty abbrev "LANG", as the rules say to send. Will this be accepted by the sponsors / has anybody submitted in the past the full cnty spelled out and not the 4-character abbreviation and had it accepted OK? Thanks, Ray N6HE

Re: Portabke Operations Challenge Log
Scott Davis
Hi Catherine,
Thanks for your e-mail. Given the complexity of the scoring for this contest, lack of similar template to build from and very late announcement notice, I'm not going to be able to support it this year. The steering committee also indicated that they may make adjustments to the scoring after reviewing the first year.
http://www.n3fjp.com/faq.html#q123
I'm sorry that I didn't have the answer you were looking for this time, but depending on how the event progresses in the next year or two, I am definitely keeping a close eye for possible future inclusion.
Enjoy!

Thus is Catherine AC4YL. I’m very much looking forward to participating in the portable operations challenge this weekend. The exchange is callsign, station class (Q or P), serial number, and 4 character grid square. Callsigns, frequency, date snd time in UTC, and power must also be recorded. I’d like to use N3FJP for logging. I’m guessing the only log to use would be AC log? I was just wondering if there were any plans to create a log for this event with the exchange boxes without score calculations (cause their scoring is a bit of a convoluted mess)? I love the contest logs as they make keeping up with the exchanges much easier as that’s the only info on the screen. https://www.foxmikehotel.com/challenge Thanks and 73, Catherine AC4YL

Actually, Jim suggested concatenating the commands, and I couldn't get it to work. And just now, I tried it again and it's flying! Pressing one F key builds the exchange in the memory slot, and then sends that slot off to the radio's keyer. Not sure what changed (maybe baud rate? cpu load? who knows). Bottom line: we have a winner! This scheme will probably work for quite a few Yaesu rigs (also FT-991, FT-2000, FT-3000, since they have the same CAT command set).
