This applicatin has 3 Controls for selecting the logs and filtering the log dataCHART and GRAPH SELECTION:
This application produces a chart or graph for the 1 to 3 calls selected. The results displayed are dependent on the Contest selected, the call selected, the Category of the Log and the Log QSO filter.
Contest Category Selection
The contest Category selectors allow a user to limit the log choices. This can make it easier to select from the 4000 plus logs available in each supported contest. The limits are seleted by making choices in the Contest Category Selection items. You can limit the contests to a single contest entry category or a group of contest categories. If you use the default Contest Category Selection, all calls in the contest will be available for selection. This control is used if you want to compare your log with another log in the same entry category. For example: you would not normally compare a SOSB 160M log with a SOSB 40M log.
| Default Contest Category Selection | |
 | The Contest entry category for this selection is all categories. You can select Calls in the Call Selection Controls for all contest participants. |
| All Single-Op All Band Logs (SOAB) Selection | |
 | This Contest entry category will limit the Call Selection Controls to selecting only Contest logs that are in the Single-Op All Band category. Low or High Power and Assisted or Non-Assisted logs will be selectable |
| Single-Op Single Band Logs (SOSB) Selection | |
 | This Contest entry category will limit the Call Selection Controls to selecting logs that are in the Single-Op Single Band 20M category. Low or High Power and Assisted or Non-Assisted logs will be selectable |
| Single-Op Single Band High Power Logs (SOSB) Selection | |
 | This Contest entry category will limit the Call Selection Controls to selecting logs that are in the Single-Op Single Band 40M High Power category. Assisted or Non-Assisted logs will be selectable |
| All Multi-Op Logs Selection | |
 | This Contest entry category will limit the Call Selection Controls to selecting logs that are in the Multi-Op category. Multi-Single, Multi-2 and Milti-Multi logs will be selectable |
| Multi-Single Logs (MS) Selection | |
 | This Contest entry category will limit the Call Selection Controls to selecting logs that are in the Multi-Single category. |
| Multi-2 Logs (M2) Selection | |

| Multi-Multi Logs (MM) Selection | |

| Disable box Selection | |
 | Checking the Disable check box allows the user to disable all category filtering. This is the same as the Default Contest Category Selection.Removing the check box will return to using the selected categories. |
Contest Call Selection
| Call1 Contest Selection | |
 | The Contest for 'Call1', 'Call2', and 'Call3' are selected by clicking on the 'Contest' dropdown box. The supported contests are listed. Click on one of the contests displayed. The contest you select determines the list of log callsigns presented in the Call Selection Controls. The presented calls are also filtered by the Contest Category Selection you have chosen. |
| Call1 Call Selection | |
 | You must select at least one callsign in any of the 3 'Call#' group. You can select up to 3 callsigns for analysis. When you click on the call entry window you are presented with a tabbed [(1-9)-Z] sorted list of calls to select from. Each tab contains all calls that begin with the letter dispalyed in the tab. The default tab is dependent on the country of your internet proivder. Click on any call, displayed under the tab, to select. Clicking on any other tab will download and display its calls. The calls, in the tab, depend on what contest you select in the Contest Selection selector The presented calls are also filtered by the Contest Categoryselections. You can cancel a call selection by clickimg on the red X box in the upper right corner of a tab call list. When you change the contest or the Category settings the Call you have selected may disappear. This is normal and occurs when that Call did not operate in the selected category or selected contest. |
| Call1 Disable | |
 | The Contest Disable checkbox can be checked for 'Call1', 'Call2', and 'Call3'. Checking the box removes that call from the graph or chart. Removing the check allows the selected call to be included in the graph. |
Log QSO Filtering
The application can filter the QSOs of a selected Call log. QSOs of a log can be included or excluded from the Chart or Graph. For example: Show the 160M QSOs of a SOAB log or Show the QSOs for a specific zone.... The QSO filter always applies to 'Call1', 'Call2', and 'Call3'. If you disable two of the Call Disable boxes in the 'Call#' group you can view the QSO filtering for one call.
The Continent, Country, and Zone selections can only be used individually. It would make no sense to Filter Germans in Zone 5 in Africa. When Using one of these 3 selectors you must return them to their 'ALL' settings before you can activate the other two. The 'ALL' choice is at the top of the dropdown list. You can Hyperscroll to the desired country, in the dropdown list, by entering the first letter of the desired Country.
