I looked on the web site at the http://www.ncjweb.com/rttysprintlogs.php so
if it up to date with the latest contest logs submitted, I don't see K0YR
listed as sending in a log. If that's the case, how is my (and others)
logged exchange inaccurate? What is the comparison against - logs from an
earlier contest?
