Cabrillo version 3.0
Cabrillo 3.0 is supported by only a few programs. The headers
tags are somewhat more elaborate and need to be chosen carefully.
The
starting rule of thumb is to use only those CATEGORY-xxx: tags which
relate to the values in the Cabrillo 2.0 CATEGORY: tag
Single
operator example (SOAB HP CW)
CATEGORY-OPERATOR: SINGLE-OP
CATEGORY-BAND: ALL
CATEGORY-POWER: HIGH
CATEGORY-MODE: CW
Multi
operator example (MOMT)
CATEGORY-OPERATOR: MULTI-OP
CATEGORY-BAND: ALL
CATEGORY-POWER: HIGH
CATEGORY-MODE: MIXED
CATEGORY-TRANSMITTER: UNLIMITED
Before submission
Check your log thoroughly it if there are any typo's
or other obvious mistakes before submitting.
The full log need to be in chronological
order, this also applies to multi-op logs !
Frequent errors are:
Non-existing province abbreviations in exchange or lack of
exchange.
Mode and RST do not match. If you you do not have your rig interfaced
to your logging software make sure the band and mode are changed
simultaneously in the log and on the rig.
"Impossible" calls due to a typo.
Time not within the contest time window.
So it is obvious that it will pay off to thoroughly
check your
log before submission. The robot will generate ERROR(S) on most of the
typo related mistakes. If there are too many mistakes or a more
fundamental ERROR occurs (e.g. wrong Cabrillo header) then the
log
will be rejected. After correction you can re-submit (as many times as
you like).
