Both are functions of a database file with the. The Super Check Partial feature of WriteLog and callsign highlighting go hand-in-hand. Callsigns that are not in the database will highlight if that station has been previously logged during the current contest. Callsigns not preceded by “DE” will highlight if that callsign is included in a “Super Check Partial” database file and this file is active for the contest you are operating. Any callsign followed by “DE” will highlight. What makes a callsign highlight? There are several factors involved that determine whether or not a callsign will highlight. Callsigns highlighted Red are dupes (stations that have been worked before on that band). Callsigns highlighted Green are new stations that have not been worked on that band but are not multipliers.

If a callsign is not highlighted in color, you must click on the first character of the callsign in order to bring the full callsign to the Entry Window.Ĭallsigns highlighted Yellow are stations which are new multipliers. If a call is highlighted in color, you need only to click on any part of the callsign for it to populate the Entry Window. This is called populating the Call field of the Entry Window. Any callsign that comes across the screen, whether it’s highlighted or not, can be clicked on (left click) with the mouse and the call will automatically be put into the Entry Window. A callsign may highlight either Yellow (I like to say it’s actually Gold in color), Green or Red or it’s possible a callsign may not highlight at all. WriteLog has the ability to highlight callsigns in color as they come across the Rttyrite screen. So in this way, RTTY contesting is much easier than CW or SSB.
You basically just tune your radio onto RTTY signals and look at your computer screen to see calls and reports. First off, you don’t have to decode the signal in your head. However, RTTY contesting is unique in several ways. It’s also the same in that there are two ways to operate – you either run a frequency (CQ) or look for stations with are CQ’ing and call them (Search & Pounce – S&P). H= Your check (the last two numbers of the year you were first licensed).RTTY contesting is the same as CW and SSB contesting in that you make 2-way contacts with other stations, log the QSO’s, score points and at the end come up with a total contest score. In the CW Sweepstakes, use CW in the Phone Sweepstakes, use PH.Ĭ= Date, in YYYY-MM-DD format. Use the following generic abbreviations:ī= Mode. QSO: 14000 CW 2106 W1AW 5 M 38 CT K5AF 10 A 60 STXĪ= Operating frequency.
