One of the aspects of amateur radio I've considered to get more active in are the various state QSO parties. To that end, I'm starting this thread to exchange information toward configuring Tlf for these events and discover areas where Tlf can be improved.
Part of the sharing I plan is to provide my files after figuring out whether they work! Also, in the long run I hope to maintain a page on the Tlf Wiki documenting these events. Eventually a database of sorts of configuration files will exist for these events and we may even add them to the repository. For some of these events it may be necessary to simply use Tlf as a logger as anything resembling accurate scoring may not be possible given the notion that stations are usually worked once or once per band/mode. State QSO parties often have mobile operators that move from county to county and the rules allow outstate participants to work those mobiles again for point and multiplier credit when they move to a new county. Some rules also permit working such a station once but logging it twice when it is on a county line or at the junction of multiple counties. So far as I'm aware, Tlf would treat additional such contacts on a given band/mode as a dupe. In my first reply to this thread I will provide the files I use as instate participant in the recent Kansas QSO Party. 73, Nate -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds.
