Well, really not only CR3L members thik on this way, and thats bad for our

Please CQWW CC, avoid the entry I sent in my log and put me in an entry
where I can win a plaque or certtificate, hi hi hi....
Well, the bad thing is like always, because of a few, others will try to
protect and this will be bad for all of us.
I think PJ2T and many others like me will not post the scores, at least
before log submission deadline
