Hello

5 days is for who want to be eligible for awards.  Anytime is good to send
a log to help in the process of checklog.

LU5DX and other do a great job typing in paper logs, collecting logs and
all kind of work to have a more acurate log checking process

Anyway 5 days is too much time, would be good to reduce it to 36 or 48 hours

Don´t like to merge assisted and non assisted as a way to solve this
problem, because next we will need to merge QRP, LP, HP and then single
operatorrs with multi operators.
