Why not have GenLog check the spelling of multiplier exchange text that I enter ?
This would require accurate up-to-date datafiles for >340 contests – and why would I do that? When you enter an exchange, you enter what the other station transmits. The logger may suggest exchange text based on the contest and callsign entered – always enter what you receive from the other station (except abbreviated CW as mentioned above). Contest sponsors do cross-checking of logs, so it is a bad practice to simply accept the logger lookup text. After all, you QSL`d the message – it IS correct in your log – right? Q: How can I back-up my LOG files during a contest? A: There is no reason why you should ever lose contest LOG data. You can have several files available that contain your QSOs. The auto-saved file [filename.LOG] is written to the drive/path you selected in the set-up screen before starting to log – or in the {View} menu while logging. If a glitch erases or corrupts your normal LOG file, you should have no problem using the back-up file or re-naming a file and reloading it
