Below are the guidelines for posting you scores for this weekends ARRL
DX SSB Contest. The most important thing you must remember is what you
put in your subject line. 

YOUR SUBJECT LINE MUST CONTAIN THE CONTEST IN IT. EITHER CW OR SSB !!!!!

EXAMPLE: WA4ZXA SINGLE/OP/LP ARRL SSB CONTEST !!!!!!!!!

The reason is that I am still getting scores in from the CW contest and
the CQWW 160 contest. I do not want to put you in the wrong one.

************************************************************************

As usual I will be doing the scores for this weekends ARRL SSB contest. I 
do have a few guidelines that I would like for you to follow when sending
your scores to me. This will be the format I will be using:

CLASS OF OPERATION
CALL                   HRS          SCORE       QSO'S       DX

You can send me just that one line of info or the summary sheet from CT,
NA, or TR. Now here a list of things that also will help with getting 
your score properly posted.

1. NO ATTACHEMENTS !!! If you attach a score of a file it will not be
   posted. Does not take that long to type one line.

2. These scores are NOT official and do NOT send me any logs. I have
   nothing to do with the ARRL besides being a member.

3. In the subject line make sure you put your call and the contest name. I 
   am doing several contests and do not want to get your score mixed up
   with another test. Example: WA4ZXA Score ARRL SSB

4. Make SURE you put your class on your posting. Do not assume I know you 
   operated anything for the last twenty years. If I receive a posting with
   only single op on it, you will go into the Unlimited Class. 

5. If you send me a correction please include the mistaken score also and 
   the class you operated in. If you only send me your call and correction 
   I have to look through the entire sheet to find you. 

6. If you have a story to tell that is fine also, but I do not have time to
   read all of your story just for a score. Please put your scores at the
   top of your story.

7. DO NOT POST ANY SCORES TO THE CONTEST REFLECTOR !! Only post scores to 
   3830 reflector or email them direct to me. 

8. Bottom line is before you send in the score, STOP, READ IT, and see if 
   you can figure out how to post it. If it does not make sense to you I am 
   sure I will have a problem. This saves us both a lot of time in sending
   corrections. 

I will be doing band breakdowns also, but all you need to do is submit the 
CT, NA, or TR sum sheet for that. I wish everyone luck and will be doing 
a full 48 hour effort myself.
