The robot might struggle a little with the checking for this contest
because of the variable number of columns. If you have columns missing
in your log (like no serial number received) please conform to the
cabrillo standard and include a "---" in the appropriate column. Only
use "member" "club" or "none" as the club status and put that before
the club name. If you receive a warning message from the robot that
looks wrong please email the adjudicator at
club.calls.logs at rsgbcc.org.

BTW nice to work some of you last night :-)

Thanks,

Pete, G4CLA.
