[UK-CONTEST] New RSGB Contest ROBOT.....

[Nigel G3TXF]

Dave,

That up-load facility looks very good. I've just had a go with it. [i.e up
to the point where the SUBMIT button is pressed].

However please could the box with Log File's address be made WIDER so that
there's room to clearly see the full address of the BROWSED file. [It has
the same problem on the ARRL's LoTW up-load page.] Just double the width of
the box itself, and it'll be easier to see the full address of the file
being submitted (without having to scroll along to the end of the address).

73 - Nigel G3TXF

Thanks Ian

I think the old rules were being picked up by your browser from the cache
file.

Apologies for the short notice but it feels cleaner to make the change at
the start of the month, rather than part way through. We did not want to
make the announcement until we had run a selection of logs from SD, WT, MM
etc. through the robot to check that it was working correctly for 80m CC.
You'll see from the rules page that the email addresses are still active,
though you will be encouraged to use the robot.

The volume of entries now being received for the 80m contests means that we
could not delay any longer. Also we have spent some time dealing with an
issue arising from the January contests and this is the reason the January
SSB results have not been posted yet.
