Re: province/state
My question was not clear Scott, when I log a contact in my general log, if the contact is from Texas then Texas will be in the state box, but when it comes to Canadian provinces, it doesn't work, if I work someone from Quebec the box stay empty, if I look in the list there is all U.S. state but no Canadian provinces, I believe I had.them before.

can I reset my record numbers
Ken Reid
Hi, Can I reset my contact record numbers to match with the date and time. I somehow brought in some new contacts that have record numbers 1- 180 or so. I want my earliest contact to be #1 and my latest contact to have the highest number. Thanks 73 Ken KG4USN

Yes it was great in the CQ WW DX SSB contest. While looking for multipliers it would tell me if I had worked the country or not and if I still needed a confirmation or not. It allowed me to work 5 all time new ones during the contest. Bill, N3EYF

ARRL Sweepstakes Download
I removed the older version of ARRL SS Logging Program but when I click the link to download the new version of the November Sweepstakes Log nothing happens. There is an arrow in the address bar that says the site automatically downloaded multiple files but I cannot find anything on my computer!! When I hover over the line on the website it points to n3fjp.com,/programs/NOVSWP.exe. That seems like it should be right. But nothing happens when I click on it. I rebooted my computer but that didn't change anything. I don't have anything else running on the computer. Anyone have any thoughts?

Hi Walter, In this reply the link brings up a list of three options for installing the logging software. In Linux Mint 20 I used "On 1/20/2020, Bill, WA7NCL sent along these step by step, detailed instructions for running the new (since 2014) .Net versions of my software on Linux Wine." This one runs the logging software and loads my logging data. Be careful of the one encouraging you to load WineHQ. The SDRplay folks told me to do that to get SDRUno going and it broke my system.

The API is even simpler. Choose it from the menu, complete the mode translation screen and the transfer is done.

The API is simpler, in the File menu there is an option to transfer via api. This does exactly the same thing as the export/import without the file being written and having to do 2 steps.

A Sweepstakes "Clean Sweep" Means Working 84 Sections This Year
The ever-popular ARRL November Sweepstakes (SS) weekends are upon us -- one for CW and the other for SSB. This year, participants will have to search out an additional Section. The CW event takes place November 7 - 9 (UTC), and the SSB event is from November 21 - 23 (UTC). Each Sweepstakes leg begins at 2100 UTC on Saturday and runs through 0259 UTC on Monday. Stations may operate 24 of the available 30 hours. An SS Operating Guide package, available via the SS web page, explains how to participate in Sweepstakes. Clubs or public service teams that are considering participating in SS will find
 the guide to be a useful source for information. This year marks the 79th SS event, which attracts more than 3,000 entries each fall for both weekends.
The number of ARRL and Radio Amateurs of Canada (RAC) Sections rose to 84 earlier this year with the addition of Prince Edward Island (PE) as a separate entity. The objective of SS -- or "sweeps" -- is to work as many stations in as many of the 84 Sections as possible within 24 hours of operating. The number of Sections worked is a score multiplier, and working all of them -- a "clean sweep" in SS terminology -- is the goal of many SS aficionados, who qualify for a clean sweep coffee mug. Hardcore SS operators try to run up the contact and multiplier counts by operating for the allowed 24 hours.
Some multipliers are rarer and/or harder to work, and these can vary from year to year. For many years, the most difficult SS multiplier was considered to be Northern Territories (NT) in Canada, where J. Allen, VY1JA, in Yukon Territory, was often the only station available. Allen has stepped back from amateur radio, however, owing to health issues. Making a clean sweep also requires working Alaska and Hawaii (or another station in the Pacific Section), as well as Newfoundland/Labrador (NL) and Prince Edward Island (PE) in the other direction. On the rarer side, finding -- and working -- stations in Alberta (AB), North Dakota (ND), Northern New York (NNY), US Virgin Islands (VI), Wyoming (WY), and Delaware (DE) has proven vexing for some SS operators.
Nonetheless, even stations with modest equipment and antennas can
 enjoy success. Many stations like to operate in the QRP category (with an output of 5 W or less), although that challenge has been more daunting at this point in the solar cycle.
ARRL November Sweepstakes is the oldest domestic radiosport event (the first was in 1930). The SS contest exchange has deep roots in message-handling protocol and replicates a radiogram preamble. In SS, stations exchange:
Full contest rules and an Operating Guide that includes examples of log formatting are available on the Sweepstakes web page. The deadline to submit CW entries is November 16. The deadline to submit phone entries is November 30.

They QSOs won't transfer "real time". The ADI transfer is for after the contest to put the entire contest log into ACLog. The other option is used to tie multiple programs together so that the main program communicates with the rig and cw interfaces. Hope this makes sense. Steve, AI3KS
