| # Send QTCs

Menu–>Contest–>Send QTCs

It is possible to send QTCs to stations, where it should not be allowed. This is to overcome a possible problem, when the continent calculation is wrong for any reason.
Before you can open the Send QTCs window, there must be an active callsign:

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

RUMlog provides the QTC series number and the QTCs to send. The given series number is editable, for the case that the station wishes to get less QTCs. You can’t send more than 10 QTCs and a QTC doesen’t include the same station’s callsign.

On top of the window you can see how many QTCs you have already exchanged with this station.

The QTCs to send are listed in the table. Selected entries can be deleted, if the transmittal fails.
When you hit the Enter key, the marked QTC changes the background colour to green. This indicates that the QTC was sent. This is for operator’s convenience only.

Pressing the button Save will save the QTCs to your log. All QTCs in the table will be scored and are not available any longer. An edited QTC series number will affect all listed QTCs at this point.

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