| Steps |
Column only used for reporting the 5MHz beacons. The
number of steps heard is entered into this column. |
| BandwidthHz |
This column is reserved for users submitting reports using
very narrowband processing teqchniques (other than the automated
gb3ral.exe, see 5MHz automatic
beacon monitoring). For most reporters this column should be
left blank |
| RecS |
"Received" part of SINPO - if no report received
or the normal RS or RST is sent, please leave column blank |
| RecI |
"Received" part of SINPO - if no report received
or the normal RS or RST is sent, please leave column blank |
| RecN |
"Received" part of SINPO - if no report received
or the normal RS or RST is sent, please leave column blank |
| RecP |
"Received" part of SINPO - if no report received
or the normal RS or RST is sent, please leave column blank |
| RecO |
"Received" part of SINPO - if no report received
or the normal RS or RST is sent, please leave column blank |
| Channel |
Insert channel designator - FA, FB, FC, FE, FK, FLor FM. |
| Mode |
Please use mode designators SSB, CW, DRM, PSK, PSK31, FS-1049,
FS-1052, SSTV and MT63 - please don't use lowercase or other
terms like USB, J3E, A1A, etc. |
| PowerW |
Transmit power in watts, rounded up to the nearest
integer. For reception reports leave blank. |
| AerialType |
Aerial type. Please only use one of
the following codes: RD
for resonant dipole, NRD for non-resonant dipole, V for vertical, L for
small loop and O for other. |
| HeightAGL |
Aerial height above ground level in metres |
| AerialPolarisation |
This is for the predominant polarisation of the aerial - H
for horizontal, V for vertical and M for mixed |
| AerialAlignment |
Please use the appropriate orientation such as N/S, NNE/SSW,
NE/SW, E/W, ESE/WNW, SE/NW, SSE/NNW or O for omni-directional |
| DataSource |
Historically this field is left blank for logs compiled using EXCEL.
Currently, for logs that are generated by the 5MHzLog program a checksum is generated
automatically. This is changed during the pre-uploading validation
to "5MHzLog", which is what is seen against such records in
the Log Table in the database." |
