Could one of the Writelog experts out there please tell me why the ARRL
Robot is rejecting most of the contacts in our VHF contest log?
I've noticed two potential problems, but I'm not sure if fixing either of
them will help. First, Writelog seems to have designated 50 Mhz as Band "A"
and 144 as Band "B". I tried a submission with those designations changed
to 50 and 144 and that did not help. Also, Writelog insists on providing
signal report fields, which are not really needed. Do I need to edit out
the reports?
I haven't seen discussion of either of these problems on the list, so I
assume I've goofed somewhere.
If anyone wants to see the Cabrillo file or Writelog file, please let me
know.
I've submitted numerous entries for other contests with my copy of Writelog
and never seen this failure before.
Thanks in advance for the help!

(This is an automated response).
Thank you for your participation in the contest and for submitting
your log in Cabrillo format. While the robot appears to be able to
process your log, it appears to have discovered irregularities in your
log. These do not affect its ability to be processed but correcting
these problems will help ensure the entry is properly scored. These
irregularities appear in a report at the bottom of this message. You
are encouraged to review and fix these irregularities. You may then
re-send it to septembervhf@arrl.org. You may have to resubmit your log
two or three times to get everything just right. Don't worry, the
robot replaces the previous file as long as the callsign remains the
same. We want to make sure that we have your information right! If
you have any questions regarding this, please contact me at
n1nd@arrl.org or by phone at 860-594-0232.
Your tracking number is [1379.septembervhf]. Please save this receipt
until verifying that your log appears on the Logs Received web page at
http://www.arrl.org/contests/claimed/
Thanks for your cooperation. 73
