Australian Remembrance Day contest logs

Peter Harding VK4OD the Remembrance Day Contest Manager says RD logs are coming in fast, but many operators have selected the wrong operating category.

"For instance, they have selected the OPEN category when in fact they have only operated in Voice mode, and in other instances they selected Phone when all their contacts they made were in CW, little mistakes like this, could, very well cost them a winning situation.

"Another common misuse of the Computer logging programs is that they generated a .TXT file instead of the .CSV format. In order to check the logs I need to print out all the Electronic logs and let's say when they are in .TXT format
that someone that has 300 to 400 points can run into 20 or so pages, whereas in .CSV format we are down to 6 to 7 pages, thus saving costly Paper and Inks, something to bear in mind for the future.

"To those that have NOT yet logged their logs please remember you only have to last Mail Monday the 15th September for them to reach me, and PLEASE send your
Electronic logs to rdlogs@wia.org.au in order that the other scrutineers also receive your logs".
