Fox Live Check List

Pre-Hunt Check List For The Fox Who Will Be Doing Live Mapping

For the Fox suffering with CRS

1 - Run FoxK4oaqPostN1mmQso.exe on your PC and minimize the window. I'll refer to this as "my exe pgm" below.
2 - Run N1MM & setup a new QRPFOXHUNT contest
3 - At least 5 minutes before the hunt starts (preferrably several hours), click link to view test map. View Test Map for
    If you don't see the map, make sure you are connected to the Internet.
4 - Enter a test QSO with a known hound or W1AW would do.
5 - Refresh the test map page in your browser. Is the QSO you just logged showing up? If so, all is well. Good luck!
    Delete the test QSO from your log.
6 - Here are some things to check if your QSO didn't show up on the map.
    Note that logged QSOs starting a few minutes before a real hunt begins & until about 5 minutes after then hunt ends, will go to the real hunt map, not the test map.
    Look in my exe pgm window & verify a line shows indicating the QSO you just logged.
    Verify you haven't lost an Internet connection. Refreshing the window should indicate no connection, but I believe some browsers can be set to show you the page from memory (cache).
    If you had to load N1MM software again, then you'll need to go thru the setup procedure again.
    Loading the latest version does NOT mean you need to go thru the setup again.

If you still can't get it to work, I try to check emails throughout the day, but sometimes forget.
If the hour is getting late, see if you can contact Dale to get my phone number. Also, Randy had my number at one point, you could try him.
