Logs Received

You can view the list of received logs here. If you have submitted a log that the robot recognizes you will receive a receipt from it. If you can't see your callsign in the list of received logs, try submitting to the robot again (after checking for errors).

W/VE Stations Not Operating From The Home QTH

If you are not ROVER nor HILLTOPPER please use the LOCATION (ARRL-SECTION) line in the Cabrillo file to put the state you operated from (since using QRA locators to determine this can be ambiguous in some cases).

2027:   July 17 - 18

Log Submission Checklist

Make sure that your log conforms to the standard Cabrillo format, in particular the following requirements to avoid having the robot bounce your log:

  • The first line begins with START-OF-LOG:
  • There is a CALLSIGN: line.
  • There is a NAME: line with only one name even for multi operator entries.
  • There are ADDRESS: lines with a correct postal address. There should only be one address even for multi operator entries.
  • BAND should be ALL, 144, 50, 6M or 2M
  • There are QSO: lines (yes, really).
  • Do not put in RST's - the contest exchange is only your grid square
  • The last line contains only END-OF-LOG:

Most recent version logging programs conform to the Cabrillo format, but check your version!
