[UK-CONTEST] RSGB 80m CC Contests

Jim,

In your reply to Les et Al you wrote:

system

However, this is not exactly what it says in the rules which now read:

<<<If problems occur with Robot submission which cannot be resolved, 
the following email addresses may be used to submit entries:
CW Events - cccw.logs at rsgbhfcc.org   SSB Events - ccssb.logs at rsgbhfcc.
org   Data Events - ccdata.logs at rsgbhfcc.org>>>

Personally, I think the version given in the rules is the best option 
although all our team will be trying to make the new system work.
