| # Receive QTCs

Menu–>Contest–>Receive QTCs

You can receive and log an unlimited number of QTCs, even when they are not valuable. It is required to fill the fields QTC from and QTC series before you enter the first QTC. You can change the data later. The callsign can be pre-filled in this order:

- Callsign from the Callsign field in the contest window
- A marked QSO line in the logbook table
- The last logged callsign

On top of the window you can see how many QTCs you have already exchanged with this station.
You have to enter the QTC series by yourself. To enter a QTC use the provided single line field and enter Time, Callsign and Number separated by a space. It is not required to enter the full time after the first QTC, just enter the minutes if the hour is the same. Use the Add button to take the data over into the QTC table. You can edit the table content, or you can delete selected rows.

When you press the Save button, all datas are written to the log. It is important to understand, that the field contents from QTC from and QTC series are used now to save the QTC.

Once saved, you can’t edit the QTCs anymore. View the QTCs using: Menu–>Contest–>Show QTCs

In RTTY you can take over multiple QTC rows pasting text in the provided multi line textfield on the right hand side. This happens automatically when select multiple words in the RTTY receive window using the mouse. Edit the copied text to format it to Time, Callsign and Number separated by a space. Every QTC needs a new line. Press the Add button to copy the data into the table. It’s still possible to edit the data in the table. Use the Save button to save all QTCs to the log.
