Contest Time Setting Issue
Posted: 27 Jan 2020, 04:34
First time use of the Contest function this weekend for Winter Field Day.
In the Contest Setup screen the Start and End times were fixed at 12hr time format, I could not find a way to change it to 24. My Station location is set correctly (New York EST time zone UTC-5).
Timeframe for this particular contest was “2p - 2p” so that’s what I set. Without warning the Contest Log stopped tabulating & dupe-checking contest entries several hours before Contest end. Incrementing the Contest Setup End Time a number of hours past 2p restored the missing entries, although it was then apparent I had unknowingly generated a number of dupes during the time the Log wasn’t functioning correctly.
Could find nothing in the Manual to resolve this, what am I missing?
