Hi,

Writelog performed flawlessly once again for me in the
10m contest. 10.35F and Win 95 (old but very stable
for me).

Log questions:

1) A 'VE9' sent 'MAR' as his section but I get a '?'
for that. I heard others ask him for a repeat, there
is no question he sent MAR. I guess I must submit what
he sent.

2) I see some DX guys are sending in their electronic
logs with '/QRP' as a part of their call. Some of
these guys actually SENT '/QRP' at the end of their
call but I didn't log that, it's NOT a callsign. Will
it be rejected by the log checking program?

3) I didn't enter the preceeding zeros in DX numbers.
IE they sent 004 and I entered 4. I assume leading
zeros are ignored in the log checking progam?

4) Someone actually sent me '589' and I actually
entered that value into my log. I'm going to watch
this carefully, if (a big 'if' here) he submits
electronically I bet he reports he sent '599' to
everyone. Hopefully this will DQ his log from hurting
others.

1436 QSOs in 117 sections, my best effort.
