[LCC] Wow must be something in the water new changes for ARRL SS......

[Steve Lott]

Ve3 is simply no longer just ON....

a partial clip follows from http://radio-sport.net

Now the VE3 prefix will take more than just a quick "ON" in your log when
it comes to the mult - especially with the possible confusion surrounding
ONN, ONS and ONE.

"The ARRL has recognized the change and they will be effective for the 2012
NOVEMBER SWEEPSTAKES," the ARRL notice reads, urging contesters to update
their contest computer programs before November.

"Be sure to check/update your logging software to be sure whatever you are
using recognizes these new multipliers."

The change is also certain to mean new records could be set in almost every
category in this year's ARRL SS CW and SSB contests - as three extra
multipliers could certainly boost the scores above the marks now on the
books.


Going to be interesting for sure !!!

This on the heals of CQ announcing shorter log turn in deadlines (which I
am in favor of)

seems like something is in the water at the contest sponsors home's :)

cheers !
