Response: NO. That field is used only when you finish up BINGO II III etc. The program will search your call data, and post to BINGO II only those QSO’s dated after the date in your call file for Bingo II credits. Therefore be sure that you enter the Bingo number and date of the award in your call file (USA-CA/BINGO window) and that you RESET your BINGO book (Home- file- setup and then click on RESET- select BINGO book only). Several county hunters have started BINGO III. It became necessary to have a means of setting a rollover date for these multiple BINGO awards. Unlike the USA-CA award where there are fields for awards (up to 5) there is no provision for multiple Bingo awards. The field Multiple BINGO rollover date was created to handle that situation. Use it only after you have finished and been awarded a multiple Bingo award number.
