The idea of forwarding to CA was to avoid loses. That was my first thought
about reports of logs failing to arrive. Was a check of the second repository
made ?
I have been lucky so far, but I make sure that as I close a contest the file
is sent to ARRL within a few minutes, then transferred into the word
processor where is is sent in an e-mail as text, attached as a text file, and
FAX'd to ARRL.
I always felt most confident in the FAX but always got e-mail confirmations
from Billy in short order.
I am not sure that mail is being opened at ARRL as fast as it had been. I
have heard several complaints of lost items in both contesting and DX areas
that are merely not opened yet. Unfortunately some are an embarrassing 3
months old.
