Suggest we use Meriden ARC as the club name in ARRL and CQ contest header/cover sheets. It realy only applies to six ARRL HF contests (SS-SSB, SS-CW, Intl DX-SSB, IntlDX-CW, ARRL 160 Meter, and ARRL 10 Meter) also the ARRL VHF and above contests in Jan, Jun, Aug, and Sep. Most logger programs accept the name in the setup info so you don't need to change or re-enter it each time.

That was the way it was originally set up before the league went all electronic. Don't know if their robots can handle any variations, such as, MARC, Marc Inc, Marc Meriden, Dingy-Dingy / Phoney guys in Wallyworld, etc. There are other MARC clubs out there.

Of course, if you are operating in any Ten-Ten event use Castle Craig as a chapter name.

That is what I have it set as in my N1MM configuration. If you look at the WAE claimed and actual scores you will see my entry for the club there. Not sure if anyone else who worked the WAE(s) used Meriden ARC.

I used to use YCCC to help them for some of the major contests that the club does not participate in but I kept getting "chaff" from the YCCC secretary that since I was not a "real" member of YCCC my scores don't count for CQ and the others that they submit their members list to. So I just use Meriden ARC for everything now.
