Hi Jim,
    I created the original submission from POST using the ARRL format
selection. Using MS Outlook, with text output onlyselected, I attached the
logfile (N9IJSSCW.LOG, a copy of the dupe sheet, and N9IJSSCW.SUM. It could
be the file name spooked them.

    My second submission was edited in word and saved as the original *.txt
file, then renamed N9IJ.LOG. The summary sheet was renamed N9IJ.SUM and both
sent as attached files.

    Since I want a pin and a sweep mug I should have sent the darned disk
and forgot net submission.
