At least here in Finland this is how it works exactly. Only thing you are missing without declaration is the "accelerated rate of fixes" near turnpoint (though I am not sure if GPS-NAV even supports this). In Volkslogger et al the logger logs fixes every second below 0.5 km before the turning point cylinder and up to 10 secondes inside the cylinder. But as a first competition it is not important (just be sure to be inside the cylinder n seconds where n is the time between fixes).
Here PDA isn't considered valid in comps (except maybe some minor comps), though but we require a IGC approved GNSS. hannu On 29.3.2011 2:49, David Lawley wrote: > > Remember, in a comp the logger does not need to have the task declared, the > scoring software applies the correct task, so you could just use the files > from your logger, with XCSoar as backup. > > Dave L > ---------------------------------------- >> From: sco...@dd.com.au >> Date: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 09:00:45 +1100 >> To: st...@freewil.com >> CC: xcsoar-user@lists.sourceforge.net >> Subject: Re: [Xcsoar-user] XCSoar OK for contest? >> >> You would most likely need to ask the coordinator/scorer.
