Scoring

QSO points

First phase is computing points for every QSO. Tucnak uses scoring methods from Taclog but some are unimplemented or can be buggy. Here are described only tested ones.

1 Standard IARU

$qsop=iaruround(qrb)*qsomult$

The iaruround function computes points from QRB (distance between stations).

2 QSO multipliers

$qsop=qsomult$

4 WWL ring

Points are computed by big WWL (like JN69). Own locator (JN69) brings 2 points, neighbors (JO50, JO60, JO70, JN59, JN79, JN58, JN68 JN78) are 3 point etc.

JO50 JO60 JO70
JN59 JN69 JN79
JN58 JN68 JN78

12 RDGB DC

Same like 1 but EXC multipliers can be counted:

• 6 times for BT
• 3 times for AB, DD, DG, EH, FK, GS, HS, IV, KA, KY, PA, PH, TD, ZE
• 1 times for all others

13 Continent

For CQ WW DX Contest. QSO points are:

• 0 for same DXCC
• 1 for same continent
• 2 for same continent within north America
• 3 for other continent

14 Continent + Band

For CQ WW WPX Contest. QSO points are:

• 1 for same DXCC
• 1 for same continent
• 2 for same continent within north America
• 3 for other continent

Points for lower bands (160, 80 and 40m) are multiplied by 2 (2, 2, 4, 6).

15 ARRL VHF Contest

• 1 for 144 MHz and bellow
• 2 for 222 MHz and 432 MHz
• 3 for 902 MHz and 1,3 GHz
• 4 for 2,3 GHz and above

Total points

1 Multiplicative

For most contests like standard IARU.

$points=(qsop+wwls*wwlbonu+dxcs*dxcbonu+excs*excbonu)*$

$*(wwls*wwlmult)*(prefs*prefsmult)*(dxcs*dxcmult)*(excs*excmult)$

2 Additive

$points=(qsop+wwls*wwlbonu+dxcs*dxcbonu+excs*excbonu)*$

$*[(wwls*wwlmult)+(prefs*prefsmult)+(dxcs*dxcmult)+(excs*excmult)]$

3 Additive all bands

For CW WW DX Contest, multipliers are computed for all bands.

$points=(qsop+wwls*wwlbonu+dxcs*dxcbonu+excs*excbonu)*$

$*[(wwls_{allbands}*wwlmult)+(prefs_{allbands}*prefsmult)+(dxcs_{allbands}*dxcmult)+(excs_{allbands}*excmult)]$

All bands together

For ARRL VHF Contest. Multipliers for all bands multipled by qso points.

$points=(qsop+\sum _{bands}wwls*wwlbonu+dxcs*dxcbonu+excs*excbonu)*$

$*[(wwls_{allbands}*wwlmult)*(prefs_{allbands}*prefsmult)*(dxcs_{allbands}*dxcmult)*(excs_{allbands}*excmult)]$
