OK, I was thinking of a VHF contest (which is really the only time log import would become an issue), and did find this rule, which would seem to prohibit grid-line operation in all ARRL VHF contests (50 MHz and above):
http://www.arrl.org/general-rules-for-arrl-contests-on-bands-above-50-mhz "1.11.A station located precisely on a dividing line between grid squares must select only one as the location for exchange purposes. A different grid-square multiplier cannot be given without moving the complete station (including antennas) at least 100 meters." So I stand by my claim that although Paul could make the change (check VUCC grid when importing a possible duplicate QSO), it probably isn't necessary. 73 - Jim AD1C On Sun, May 2, 2010 at 11:19 AM, Bud Semon N7CW <[email protected]> wrote: > Grid boundaries are allowed, but the rules are a bit excessive (my opinion). > See > http://www.arrl.org/files/file/Awards%20Application%20Forms/VUCCRULE1a.pdf . > I did this a couple times last summer and actually posted little movies of > my set up and zooming in to the GPS showing the XX.000 display.
