[CQ-Contest] 2023 ARRL year in review

[Mike Smith VE9AA]

I should mention too that since Jan 1, 2023 all my (and anyone else in NS or
NB) results show up as MAR (*(hint there is no MAR) even for contests there
was never MAR.

 

I've always been very polite, professional and patient with the ARRL.

 

If Florida or California no longer existed in the ARRL results/records
(and/or their scores were lumped into a no longer existing section) would
the outcome have been different?

 

I mean, it hasn't just been a few months..it's been a year.

 

We do our part all year long and invest dozens if not hundreds of hours into
contests to give all you guys rare/rarish mults, surely you can get a
programmer to go through the website and in minutes or an hour give us some
respect and put us back on the map?

 

Thanks

So, it's been exactly 1 year to the day since the ARRL modified a couple of
their contests to remove MAR and allow us to send NB and NS (which has been
allowed for the vast majority of contests) but the results web site is still
broken.

 

There is no longer any way to search out NB or NS scores (there always was)
for -ANY- contest. (the provinces are missing from all the dropdowns)

 

I have sent NUMEROUS emails all year long to anyone I knew who worked at the
ARRL.

 

Can I please get an HONEST answer when this will be fixed?

 

Thanks
