1/ Most of the time, when a contest isn't supported, it's possible to 
use another one to log the Q. Of course, points, mults etc. won't be 
correct (the adjudication process will recompute the score anyway), but 
at least you can enter your Q. In last resort, the DXPed mode is also 
usable (and export the log in ADIF, text or CSV to convert it in 
Cabrillo). Be creative ;-)

2/ Adding a new contest to Win-Test is often a tedious task if you want 
to do it properly. Especially with fussy rules (regarding scoring, 
bonus, and all that jazz). Which is a kind of specialty of the RSGB 
contests ;-)

3/ I'm always circumspect when the result tables are shorter than the rules.

In summary, there are a very few chances that this contest will be added 
in the near future.

Sorry
