Hello Kevin,

Go to the "View" menu and select "Contest Mode". You will then see a list of contests. Click on "Add New..." then enter a name for the contest and start and stop times. Then click ok. You will then see the list of contests again. Double click the contest name you just created. In your macros put in <QSONR> to have it print the QSO number. Hope this helps. If you have any problems let me know and I'll try to help you out. Good luck with the contests and hope to hear you during some of the upcoming RTTY contests.
