NPOTA (National Parks on the Air)

Post by K2RAS »

Do the developers plan on creating an award for the National Parks on the Air 2016 program in the near future? Just wanted to check before I go through all the work of trying to do it myself.

Thanks, Ron

No we have no intention of hard coding this award.

It is just this type of award that we provide the user defined awards for (Award Manager)

Ok, I created a file and successfully used it to upload and create the NPOTA award in Log4OM (485 references). If anyone wants it I can post it to the thread.

In return, can anyone provide me some direction on how to create a custom expression to highlight only missing references in the Cluster Window? I presume the expression would work either in the Cluster Window or as an Alert.

Thanks, Ron

Ron has generated the award file which has been forwarded to our awards manager Clause for inclusion in the default awards set.

Lele and I have derived a regular expression for the DX Cluster custom highlights which will be included in the default set of custom highlights for the next release

If you update the awards in Log4om it is probably there already for download, because Claus said he would make it available yesterday

you should remove your own NPOTA award (if any), because it may conflicts with official one downloaded from net.
