Contest Logging

Contest tab. Pick a contest and an exchange, and OpsLog handles the rest.

Setup

• Contest — from the built-in ADIF CONTEST_ID list.
• Exchange — a running serial (auto-incrementing) or a fixed exchange.
• Window — start / end times; QSOs outside are flagged.

While operating

• OpsLog auto-fills CONTEST_ID and the sent / received serials (STX / SRX).
• Dupe detection flags a call already worked in the contest.
• A live scoreboard tracks your progress.

Export

Export the contest log to Cabrillo for submission (Recent QSOs → export), or to ADIF. See Import and Export ADIF.

Tip

Use Bulk edit field (right-click in Recent QSOs) to fix a contest field across many QSOs at once — e.g. set CONTEST_ID or an exchange string on an imported batch.
