> Log checking for several recent contests that used the FT4 and FT8 modes 
> has shown undesirably large numbers of claimed QSOs that receive 
> not-in-log ("NIL") status from the other station.  The WSJT development 
> team has worked together with contest sponsors and log checkers to 
> analyze the probable causes of these NILs.  Our findings and some 
> operating advice for future contests are posted here:

> and will also appear in the May-June 2020 issue of NCJ, the National
