The following was downloaded from the ARRL BBS, FYI.  Would be nice to
use this for all e-mail log submissions for Sprints, NAQP, etc..

                                          -- Rich K1CC
CU all in the ARRL DX CW this weekend, will be S/O as KS1L (assuming the
ice melts off the antennas by then!).  

                     ARRL Suggested Standard File Format
                      For Submission of Contest Log Data
 
 
All files must be in standard ASCII format.
 
All files must be on an MS-DOS formatted disk, 3.5 inch (720-KB or 1.44-MB) 
or 5.25 inch (360-KB or 1.2-MB). 
 
The diskette label should clearly indicate the call sign used, contest name, 
entry class, and date of the contest.
 
The log data file name shall consist of the call sign and the extension ".LOG". 
For example: KR1R.LOG.
 
The log file must consist of one line of data per QSO (no more than 
80 characters wide), without headers, footers, page breaks or other 
non-ASCII characters.
 
All QSO data must appear in each line, aligned by columns, and must include 
the following: 
 
        band:  wavelength for HF and frequency for VHF.
 
        mode:  designator such as CW, PH, etc.
 
        date:  in MM/DD/YY or DD/MM/YY  format.
 
        time:  4-digit UTC without colons.
 
        call sign of station worked.
 
        complete exchange sent.
 
        complete exchange received.
 
        indication of multipliers:  for example an "*", section/prefix/zone, 
          or etc.
 
        points claimed:  ALL unclaimed QSOs must be "0" points.
 
        Multioperator, two-transmitter category log in the ARRL International 
          DX Contest must indicate which transmitter made which QSOs.
 
        In contests that require rest periods, the "times on" and "times off" 
          must be in a separate column.
 
A paper summary sheet is required of all logs, either an official ARRL summary
sheet or a close facsimile with a signed contest participation disclaimer.
 
All diskettes become the property of the ARRL and are not returnable.
