[MiQP-Mail] N1IW/8 has submitted MiQP Plans

[Hank Greeb]

Glad to see youduring the MIQP 2013. Come back often!

Can't comment on your particular operation, but the explanation of how 
to submit proposed operation on the entry page seems to confuse many 
people. It's apparently no obvious to the casual user that if you're a 
mobile or other type operation which will involve more than one county, 
you selectthe first county on the list with a mouse, then depress the 
"CONTROL" key, and select others. There were several multiple entry 
messages, spaced a minute or less apart, for some of the mobile 
operations.  I interpretedthese as an individual trying to tell us that 
he/she was planning a mobile operation and was entering the counties 
sequentially.  This resulted in only one of the counties being 
ultimately listed on the activity map.

A minor adjustment of the directions to include something like "for 
mobiles who plan to cover mutiple counties, select the first county on 
the list, hold down the control key, then scroll down to the next, click 
on it, scroll down againto the next, etc......."

Since you were active at the timeof these deletions, it probably didn't 
affect your score. Few serious contesters would be checking e-mail 
during the contest.

ps. I didn't find you during the MiQP 2013, but found another op in MTMO 
- for both CW and SSB mults (I hope I copied him right!)
