Several entrants in the SSB and CW CCs make use of this great facility.
You must have missed the post from Dave on the 11th June (copied below) to 
this reflector regarding the new service.  Thanks to all who made that 
possible as it has certainly cut down my work as an adjudicator.
Now,  if only we could get email entrants to enter the correct date, the 
correct time, the correct band, their own call correctly etc etc then 
adjudication would be so much simpler!

"A little late for a reminder, as the contest is going on right now, but
the web entry system which has been highly successful for VHF contest
log entries, has been extended to work for the 80m CC contests. So if
you or any club members log on paper during the event, you can give this
a try as an alternative to keying the QSOs into a logging program in
post-contest mode.
