Hi All, Winter Field Day Log 2.9.0 is Now Available! The Winter Field Day folks let us know last fall that they were adding additional bonus multiplier objectives for Winter Field Day 2025, that would be best handled on log submission from their web site. We only just discovered that those modifications included removing the multipliers applied for each band / mode slot activated, per prior year contest rules. These specific multipliers were previously calculated in the software and we've updated the program accordingly. Now, much like the ARRL Field Day log submittal process, all objectives, bonuses and multipliers will be applied to your QSO points when you submit your log on their Winter Field Day site. As always, upgrades and new programs are free to registered users. If you are currently running a version of our software released after January 2021 and are Internet connected, each program should detect the new upgrade and offer to retrieve it for you on start.

Hi All, Just a few tips and reminders as we prepare for Field Day next weekend! As we approach Field Day weekend, groups from all over the continent are making final preparations, getting equipment, generators, food, rigs and computers together, antennas airborne, coordinating operating schedules and all the little things that make Field Day go. In many cases they will be on the air for many hours, striving to both show off the amazing hobby of Amateur Radio and turn in a competitive score. It is a huge amount of fun and a heck of a lot of work! Please help reward their great efforts by providing plenty of QSOs for their logs! If you aren't already part of a group and would like to be, please reach out to your local club. It's likely they will be thrilled to have you participate with them! You can find clubs participating in Field Day in your area here: https://www.arrl.org/field-day-locator Even if you aren't a contester and you only have an hour to spare from home, please fire up your rig and give as many stations as you can a contact. Everyone you call will really appreciate your QSO and it will make their Field Day that much more enjoyable! In addition, you might be able to pick up a few more states towards your Worked All States Award. You will find a quick start video for using our Field Day log here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJEIXuoKWqc Don't wait for Field Day morning to realize you can't find your registration information! Please check now! If you can't find your Field Day password, please go ahead and retrieve it here: https://juliet.affirmatech.com/passwords If you plan to use a network for Field Day and haven't already done so, it's time to get all the PCs you'll be using together and make sure your network is all set. Complete details on networking our Field Day software using both File Share and TCP methods are here: https://www.n3fjp.com/help/networkinghelp.html Please take a little time well before Field Day, get your PCs together and your network up and running. As always, problems easily solved in a relaxed atmosphere can seem insurmountable when the clock is ticking! Enjoy tracking how your Field Day is going, even when you are away from the site, as well as how your group is doing collectively on HamDash! We already have 1,225 stations on board! https://hamdash.affirmatech.com/ Encouraging Field Day visitors can change a life (and even affect yours)! When I was 14 years old, a family friend took my Dad and me to a local Field Day on a Saturday evening. That was my first exposure to Amateur Radio. I didn't understand the significance at the time, but the guys had an amazing run going as we arrived at their site. Still, they took the time to explain what was going on, the exchange, and they were completely willing to abandon their run to encourage this shy, 14 year old to take over the mic. I got started, the run resumed and so much was happening, I forgot all about being nervous. Before I knew it I was having a blast! Anyone who has ever been at the bottom of a pile up, running a frequency, knows the thrill. They kindly said I was a natural, and I was hooked! Had it not been for the positive, encouraging spirit of that great group, willing to forego an awesome run for the sake of possibly encouraging a kid, I'd very likely never have become an Amateur Radio operator. I wouldn't be doing what I'm doing today, and there would never have been N3FJP Software for you to use. Those couple hours changed my life and hopefully, through our software, has brought some added enjoyment to yours, too! If you see a visitor with a hint of intrigue in their eye, please offer them that same gracious encouragement that was given to me. It's very possible that you will be helping to shape a destiny, and we will all be better for it!

Hi All, Just a quick note to let you know that.... In Region and Out of Region versions of the New England QSO Party Contest Software (4.3.6) are Now Available! We've updated the in region and out of region versions of the New England QSO Party software (4.3.6) for the new abbreviations and rule changes. It is very important that you upgrade to the latest. The previous versions will still automatically retrieve the new abbreviation list on start, they will be able to log QSOs and appear at first glance to work fine, but because of the new, flipped state / county format, the previous versions will not work properly for anyone that does not upgrade.

We mentioned that we've updated our VHF Contest Log (6.6.8) to also include support for the Solar Eclipse QSO Party in our January announcement, but it wasn't part of the title and a lot of folks missed it. While the SEQP includes HF, the existing grid exchange in the VHF software was the best fit for SEQP's inclusion.

Hi All, It has come to light that one of the embedded tools that Affirmatech Extensions requires to display the maps no longer supports Windows 7. Windows 7 left active Windows support back in 2020. We are looking to see if there is an alternative we can incorporate into Affirmatech Extensions that will also work on Windows 7. If you are running Windows 7 (or possibly Windows 8), please just click the X when prompted for the upgrade for now. We will let you know if we find a solution for Windows 7 users. Thanks for your patience! Stay tuned.... 73, Scott N3FJP http://www.n3fjp.com Serving the Amateur Radio community with contesting and general logging software since 1997. 1 Peter 3 vs 15: Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.
