LOG CHECKING REPORT FROM WWW.ARRL.ORG The ARRL is pleased to announce the availability of Log Checking Reports (LCRs) for selected ARRL contests. We recognize that it is useful to participants to review the errors found in their logs, allowing them to identify areas for improvement in their performance. In order to minimize additional manpower and avoid the inequities, we have established guidelines regarding how we will address queries. Simply put, we will not enter into discussions or debates over individual QSOs. All electronic log data is checked using custom software. All logs are judged by the same criteria. The log-checking software can and does perform a good job of impartially adjudicating the logs. Unique QSOs are not busted without substantial evidence. Audio tapes, wave files of particular QSOs, email confirmations from others, or other types of "documentation," while useful for a contester's research and learning, are not usually definitive and will not be considered. If a systemic problem is found, we will address the issue as appropriate. There have been a few rare occurrences where log files were corrupted during transmission to the ARRL. If your report reflects an unusually large decrease in QSOs that you suspect may have resulted from a log file transmission error, we will be happy to investigate. The Cabrillo format Start-Of-Log and End-Of-Log statements are the means that we use to verify that the log arrived intact. We will deal with these problems as necessary. LCRs will be available for selected events, commencing with the 2001 ARRL November CW Sweepstakes. Please keep in mind that the style and format for each report may differ between various contests, as the various contests are checked and processed by different software. If you have questions, please feel free to contact us at contests@arrl.org or by phone at 860-594-0232. Thanks!
