Chris - Could you have accidentally identified an 070 message as spam? As I understand it, some mail clients and/or servers take action if a message is identified as spam--a message may be sent to the

There have been some reports that people had problems uploading their logs for the contest. Unfortunately, one of the links included in an email was wrong. Please use the link located on the contest r

Barry - I don't think the scorer will be open until the contest period is over, 1959z today. So you may need to wait a few more hours. BTW, I was up until 0435z last night. Saw you weakly a few times.

Art - Good suggestions. Because of the "close-in" phenomenon, I hope to be on the air earlier than when the band "goes long", just to catch some nearby LONP points. I'll do my best to stay up late to

Glad it worked. Steve

THAT sounds like you are subscribed twice. We just identified a situation where a member was subscribed to the email without an underlying groups.io account. Perhaps you DO have a groups.io account un

I'm sure they shipped it back out after 2100z yesterday. It was just a loaner for the weekend. Look for a ham in Commerce City. :-) Steve

Maybe someone else needed a radio for Field Day. Steve W3HF

John - Yes, it's tricky. And the VE3 shouldn't have told you that YOU had to stop, unless he was tracking you for over 24 hours. I think the main point is that they want to incentivize the portable op

John - Although Field Day runs from 1800z to 2059z, a station's individual end time depends on when operation started and when the station was set up. Any station that was set up prior to 1800z can on

My log is uploaded. Only 13 QSOs, all PSK31. Then again, I just got home from a business trip, taking a red-eye connection from the west coast, and walked into the house at 1742z. Now to unpack and ge

Note to everyone: Now that some members have uploaded their logs to ARRL, PODXS 070 appears in the drop-down for Club or Group Name. All you have to do is select (click on) it. No need to worry about

Paul - I need CN98, my last one for WA. Unfortunately I'm on a business trip without radios, so I won't be available on Monday. So please put me on your list for a later return trip. Thanks 73, Steve

John (and Paul) - Actually, the only things that have to match to get a LoTW confirmation are date/time/callsigns/band/mode. Once that match is made, you get credit for wherever the other station says

I do the same. I upload to eQSL the original log. That provides matches for most of the incoming. And that don't match get researched to see if it's my error or theirs. Most of the errors are simple "

Not all scoring systems are set up the same way. Back when PSK31 was invented, it was (for a while) the only PSK mode. So the ADIF standard called it a MODE and defined the MODE as PSK31. This results

Sherri - If you use another logging program, just put the 070 number in a "Notes" of an "Exchange" field. This contest is being scored manually, and David says he'll find the number pretty much anywhe

My experience with that is that many ops don't realize that uploading their log to eQSL results in eQSLs sent to everyone in the log. And although they would never send out paper QSL cards with the ne

Eric - 070 doesn't do the formal cross-check of some of the other big contests, and delete QSOs if they're NIL in the other station's entry. That said, the old contest checker did provide a NIL percen
