Re: Last minute: rules/scoring for the King of Spain CW contest

[Csahok Zoltan]

Thanks for the rules! They worked fine. I added these extra lines to define
the neccessary Cabrillo fields:

CABRILLO-CONTEST = EA-MAJESTAD-CW
CABRILLO-CATEGORY-MODE = CW
#CABRILLO-CONTEST = EA-MAJESTAD-SSB
#CABRILLO-CATEGORY-MODE = SSB
CABRILLO-CATEGORY-BAND = (ALL, 160M, 80M, 40M, 15M, 10M)
CABRILLO-CATEGORY-POWER = (HIGH, LOW, QRP)

I assume the same rules apply to the SSB contest too.

Could you create a pull request for this?

Multiplier counting is a bit different in EA and HADX/UKEI contests.
HADX/UKEI do *not* count "own" country as DXCC multiplier -
HADX: worked DXCC + WAE list countries (exception HA) and Hungarian counties...
UKEI: DXCC countries worked on each band, (excluding the UK/EI DXCC countries...
Whereas EA *does* count them -
... EADX-100 entities + The Spanish provinces + SMR ...

So these 2 QSOs
    EA3XXX  599 B
    EA5YYY  599 A
result is 3 multipliers: EA, EA/B, EA/A.

Having 2 multipliers is currently not yet supported, but we are working on it.

73,
