http://www.w9wi.com/contest/w9wi.cbr looks like this:
CONTEST: ARRL-DX-SSB
CALLSIGN: W9WI
ARRL-SECTION: TN
CATEGORY: SINGLE-OP-ASSISTED ALL HIGH SSB
CLUB: Tennessee Contest Group
START-OF-LOG: 2.0
QSO: 21000 PH 2005-03-05 1433 W9WI 59 TN SP7MTF 59 500
QSO: 21000 PH 2005-03-05 1434 W9WI 59 TN OO4JZ 59 KW
[and so on]
END-OF-LOG:
When the robot reads a message, it flattens out all the attachments
into a big flat entity that you can think of as the "body" of the
message. Then it scans the flattened message body for a Cabrillo log,
looking for a line that has "START-OF-LOG:" in column 1. From that
point it starts adding lines to its own internal "log" file until it
reaches a line that has "END-OF-LOG:" in column 1. Everything before
the START-OF-LOG: and after the END-OF-LOG: is considered QRM and is
discarded.
After all this has been done, the robot evaluates the log file. In
the case of http://www.w9wi.com/contest/w9wi.cbr the resultant log
file looks like:
START-OF-LOG: 2.0
QSO: 21000 PH 2005-03-05 1433 W9WI 59 TN SP7MTF 59 500
QSO: 21000 PH 2005-03-05 1434 W9WI 59 TN OO4JZ 59 KW
[and so on]
END-OF-LOG:
Callsign, category and ARRL section are required fields; the robot
is complaining because these fields are missing from the log.
