What is needed for the new PE section come April 2020 #26

Closed ny4i closed 4 years ago

Prince Edward Island becomes its own section in April 2020. Other than adding it to the constants file, how would the images be created to make the section from MAR?

The shape files for MAR will need to be edited, and a new shape file for PEI (is that the name?) created. It's been so long since I worked on shape files, I don't remember how to do that. I'll look into it.

From this article, http://www.arrl.org/news/radio-amateurs-of-canada-announces-a-new-section, it looks like it will be PE.

The number of Sections needed for a clean sweep in the ARRL November Sweepstakes (SS) will rise to 84 in 2020, with the addition of a new Prince Edward Island (PE) Section. Radio Amateurs of Canada (RAC https://www.rac.ca/) announced this week that the new Section will become effective on April 1.

Thanks,

I added the section to CONTEST_SECTIONS map, and I edited the MAR and created PE shapefiles. Preliminary testing looks good. More testing would be useful. I edited the shapefiles with QGIS.

I believe this should be sufficient to close this issue.
