CATEGORY: operatorcategory powercategory location-category
Enter one selection in a space-delimited list for each of the three sub-categories from the
following:
- Operator-category (SINGLE-OP / MULTI-ONE / MULTI-MULTI / SWL)
- Power-category (HIGH / LOW / QRP)
- Location-category (FIXED / MOBILE / EXPEDITION)
Reason:
For version 2.0 of Cabrillo in CATEGORY: field there is no such thing as SINGLEOP, MULTISINGLE or MULTIMULTI; The dashes are missing.
There is no MULTI-SINGLE; MULTI-ONE should be used.
VAQP has re-defined several Cabrillo 2.0 values which already exist in the Cabrillo Standard described at http://www.kkn.net/~trey/Cabrillo_v2/
Cabrillo is a standard and is, thus, the final word on attribute names and values.
