A New version of VHF Super Partial Check, and Prefill Databases for the ARRL
June 2012 VHF Contest are now available at:
www.k3lr.com/w9zrx/ (Make sure to enter the Trailing "/".)
======================================
Release 20120513_00 - Release Notes
======================================
Note that these files are intended for use ONLY as an OPERATING AID. Their
availability does not mitigate the responsibility of the user to COPY and
ENTER the Exchange given to them during a Contest.
All Calls in the Database have been "veted" against the QRZ Database to
eliminate -SK's-, Calls that have changed because of License Upgrade or
Relocation, Expired Calls, and Non-Existent Calls. To be included, a call
must appear in 2 or more logs.
The number of calls in the Database is smaller than past releases. Only
2011 plus Jan 2012 Logs were used in building the 2012 Release. The last
Release used logs from 2009, 2010, and 2011 logs. This change and these
checks are intended to reduce the number of "busted" and expired calls.

NOTE THAT THIS WILL PROBABLY BE THE ONLY RELEASE FOR 2012 CONTESTS. I'M
HAVING ROTATOR CUFF SURGERY ON MY RIGHT (MOUSING) SHOULDER AND A PROCEDUE ON
MY BICEP TENDON. I hope I'll be rehab'ed enough for the CQ WW. Right now
extensive typing is painful.
****************************************************************************
****************************************************************************
Regardless, please continue to send me your Cabrillo submissions for the
summer VHF Contests as well as any previous 2011 and 2012 VHF Contests. My
xyl knows how and where to store the files. A larger number of logs will
result in a more inclusive and accurate Database.
The .DTA and .SCP Files support Super Check Partial for the CT, KC6TEU,
N1MM, NA, RoverLog, UcxLog, Win-Test, and WriteLog Contest Logging Software.
The N1MM File enables the N1MM Software to Prefill the Grid Square.
The RoverLog.LUP file will enables the RoverLog Software to Prefill the Grid
Square.
The W3KM file enables VHFLOG to Prefill the Grid Square.
The .DTB File supports the Win-Test Software "Exchange Guessing".
