A couple of weeks ago, I asked the question:Is anyone else concerned that people are posting their logs before the log submission deadline has passed? It would be easy for someone who has a questionable QSO to go to the on-line log, and if not found there, delete it from their own log, thus avoiding the wrath of the log checkers. Here are the responses I received: At 10:59 AM 10/31/2003, George Harlem W1EBI wrote: Kind of like publicizing interim election results before the polls close... At 11:02 AM 10/31/2003, Kenneth E. Harker WM5R wrote: I was thinking the exact same thing. At 11:03 AM 10/31/2003, Eric Scace K3NA wrote: Under that logic, would it also be improper to upload one's log to the LOTW? If one saw QSOs with XY9Z [imaginary call] confirmed At 11:04 AM 10/31/2003, Tom Frenaye K1KI wrote: As an interesting datapoint... I have 52 of 5000 QSOs "confirmed" via LoTW as of this morning. At 11:25 AM 10/31/2003, Zoli Pitman HA1AG wrote: Would someone waste his time to do that to avoid the possible loss of a few QSOs??? At 12:49 PM 10/31/2003, David A. Pruett K8CC wrote: That was my reaction as well. At 01:00 PM 10/31/2003, Alfred J. Frugoli (KE1FO) wrote: I've recieved several e-mails through E-qsl after CQWW RTTY. I uploaded my log almost immediatly after the contest, not really thinking things through. I recieved numurous e-mails about busted callsigns and zones or states. I didn't change anything in my log, but who knows what others would do!

I have always been willing to share my log with anyone who wanted it, but only after the log submission deadline. 73, John, K4BAI. 73 - Jim AD1C
