The DC3HB Modules for WriteLog
Updated 05/30/2011

Bernd, DC3HB, has created contest modules that allow WriteLog users to log additional contests which do not come standard with WriteLog.  Two of these modules are for the DRCG Long Distance Contest (LDC) and the SCC RTTY Championship.  These modules are downloaded from Bernd's WriteLog page at http://www.dc3hb.net/downloads/writelog/.  The files you download are zipped files.  In the zipped files you will find executable (.EXE) files which automatically install the necessary files in the correct locations so they are recognized by WriteLog.  PLEASE NOTE:  You do NOT have to install these modules using the WriteLog Legacy Installer Helper.

Installing the modules is easy.  If you have an older version of the module installed, the installer will remove the older version and install the newer version.  This is also true if you happened to install the SCC RTTY Championship module provided in the SM6SRW module package.  It is recommended you use the DC3HB SCC module instead of the one in the SM6SRW package because it's more up-to-date.

1. Download the installation files from Bernd's webpage http://www.dc3hb.net/downloads/writelog/ and save them to your hard drive.  There are two separate files to download - one for the LDC (Long Distance Contest) and one for SCC RTTY Championship.

2. The files are zipped, so unzip each file onto your hard drive, run the executable file (.exe) and follow the instructions during the installation.

3. After the installation, open WriteLog, choosing to start a new log.  Scroll to the appropriate new modules.

4. Once you choose the appropriate contest in the list, a dialog screen will appear where you input contest exchange information.

For the LDC-RTTY contest, the dialog screen appears like this:

For the SCC RTTY Championship, the dialog screen appears like this:

5. Now you are ready for the contest!!!
