OK Colin, I will email N5UP who posted the original on eQSL and update 
him. As I said, I know there are some on here that slate it, one of 
which has already replied. Personally I don't chase awards apart from 
the occasion DXCC update, but I actively use eQSL for my personal aims. 
I don't accept it is as open to abuse that some claim, if I receive an 
eQSL for a QSO I haven't made there is normally a reason, ie the chap 
uploaded with his home call instead of a contest special. All eQSLs 
which are not in my log are simply rejected in eQSL. I have never had 
totally bogus ones. But everybody is entitled to their views.
