[CQ-Contest] 160m Contest Robot Update

[Kutzko, Sean, KX9X]

Each time you resubmit a log to the robot, the previous log gets overwritten (assuming you get a confirmation number in your receipt and not an "UNABLE TO PROCESS LOG" message). Check your confirmation number, and if the number has increased from your previous one, your log has been updated.

Sean I'm sure there are several guys like me who corrected our log then re-submitted the log. What other action should we take or does your computer spit out dupes?

Hello, fellow Contesters-

The issue with the 160m robot is, in fact, merely a formatting issue. Here's the situation:

Cabrillo files for the 160m Contest require a value for the location of the stations you work. For the DX QSOs in your log, you can manually edit your Cabrillo file and enter "DX" in the column that your W/VE QSOs have their ARRL section. You can then submit that to the robot and all will be well.

If you have already sent in your log, THAT IS OKAY. Your DX QSOs will NOT be ignored during the scoring process; that's one of the things the Contest Branch and log checkers take care of. It's important to understand that. If you have a confirmation number from the robot, your ENTIRE log has made it to us.

Thank you for your understanding.
