[WT-support] Iota contest

[Bob Wilson, N6TV]

Sorry Ken, you were asking about the IOTA contest, not the IARU which is
this weekend (thanks G3WVG).

   1. In the Win-Test logging window, type *REOPEN* [Enter] to view
the *Contest
   Configuration* dialog.
   2. Make sure that the *category* is set to *Multioperator,
   Single-Transmitter*
   3. Click *OK*
   4. In the logging window type *RUN* [Enter] to change that station type
   to RUN
   5. In the logging window of the other computer, type *MULT* [Enter] to
   change the station type to MULT
   6. Note that the last column displays R1 or M to indicate which station
   made the QSO
   7. *Important Tip*:  From the WT menu, select *Commands | Station type |
   Sticky setting* or else Win-Test might reset the station type to RUN
   every time you restart the program.

When you create the Cabrillo file, the station identifier (transmitter no.)
will be shown in the last column (0=RUN, 1=MULT).

73,
Bob, N6TV
