Tim,
Not sure if you actually read some of the previous postings - especially
the one that said cqcontest.ru is now cqcontest.net .
Dmitry, the owner of cqcontest.net, has recently complicated the process
for posting scores.
Here is what is required:
- A new username and password . Old usernames most likely won't work.
- The username MUST be the same as the callsign for which the real-time
score report is being submitted. For example, if NQ4I uses a different
callsign next weekend, such as NA4A, he CANNOT use his existing nq4i
cqcontest.net username to submit reports. It will fail because the
username (nq4i) does not match the callsign (NA4A). He must obtain a new
username (na4a).
The current version of N1MM Logger+ has a number of cross-checks and
status messages to minimize the chance of errors. However, as the N1MM
Logger programmer who made these changes, cqcontest.net still feels like
a moving target.
73,
Steve, N2IC

A local contester once walked me through setting up my logger so my scores
would get automatically posted to a real-time scoreboard -"cqcontest.ru" I
think it was. I think this was 2013 WAE CW. cqcontest.ru doesn't work for
me anymore. So I think you guys are talking about a successor.
I have no idea how I would set it up again. I really needed a lot of
handholding, because I had to register and then tweak things in the logger
config. I'm not really sure it's worth the effort to go look up again.
If I want to compare myself to others in a serial number contest, I just
listen to their serial number and compare to mine, while dialing across the
bands. Don't really need a real-time scoreboard. Of course in Russian DX,
this crutch doesn't work for the russian stations that don't send serial
numbers!
