Food Committee Setup BreakDown Radio  Antenna Power Committee Report Committee Public Affairs

 

 

Logging & Reporting Committee (LRC) - This committee will be in charge of all the logging (both paper and electronic), and tally all points during the event into the proper forms. This committee will sit down and tally up all of the points, and create log sheets with the proper multipliers (unless already available). XYL's, SL, and family members may assist with this, but we need 2 Experienced hams to Chair this Committee.

The LRC will also be the I.T. Committee as well for the event. The LRC will handle the creation of a server, along with the connecting pc/laptops at each station for the logging.  This will be connected to a central logging server using HTTP.  This is being handled by KA1MDQ.

From the 2008 Field Day Rules

===================================================================================

After your successful Field Day operation, what happens next? Submitting the required paperwork on time is an absolute must. Submit your entry to the ARRL Contest Branch within 30 days of the end of the event. Your entry begins with a completely and accurately filled out Summary Sheet which shows all of the information. Be careful: many of the commercial logging programs provide some basic information on your summary sheet, but leave some important things out. Your best bet is to use an official Summary Sheet. Make certain you use the most current Summary Sheet from the ARRL, since there are changes that affect scoring. Make certain you complete all parts of the Summary Sheet. Without your supplying us complete, accurate information, we can’t print the results accurately. Consider making your submission via the new ARRL Field Day Web Applet that is found at www.b4h.net/cabforms/ At this site you can submit your summary sheet information directly to the ARRL and it will show receipt of the information within about 24 hours on the ARRL Web. Remember that if you use this option you still need to submit your supporting documentation. Also keep in mind that the Cabrillo format does not accommodate Field Day. There it is a 50-point bonus to submit using the Web Applet. The logging requirements for Field Day are different from ARRL contests. Instead of standard log files, you are only required to submit a Dupe Sheet, separated by band and mode. For Field Day, paper copies of the dupe sheets are acceptable. Keep your logs available, however, in case we need to request you to submit them at a later time for clarification. You do not have to use the Cabrillo format for Field Day, since it is a log format and only Dupe sheets are required for submission. We do accept Cabrillo log files in lieu of dupe sheets. The final part of your submission includes the various “proofs” of your bonus points claimed. Some of these are easy. Log sheets noted with the specific QSOs made using natural power or your satellite contacts are sufficient for that bonus. A written statement verifying your location in a public place and a copy of your visitor’s log will be fine for claiming those points. Send in a copy of your Press Release, or a copy of any newspaper or media coverage you actually receive. And send in your photographs. Be creative with your photography. Sending in a picture of someone in a baseball cap pouring gas into a generator may be proof of use of emergency power, but probably won’t be used in the QST write-up. Creative photos of operators, interesting station set-ups, participation by young people and such are more likely to catch the eyes of QST editors.
