I have not seen this mentioned before so thought I would pass it on.  
A couple of days ago I submitted my ARRL 10 meter contest entry.  The robot
came back that it does not recognize SCCC or So. Calif Contest Club or any
other type abbreviation.  Southern California Contest Club must be spelled
out completely for the robot to accept it.
