All,

For the 2017-2018 Contest Season, ARRL has announced in the upcoming September 
QST (p91) a few changes to reflect current "best practices" in the contest 
community and help us improve the quality of the competition and reporting of 
results.

Some of the subjects discussed in the announcement include:


-          Increased focus on online log submissions via web app as we phase 
out email Robots.



-          Shortening log submission deadlines to help get the log data into 
log checking more quickly.



-          Encouraging in HF competition that logs use 1 kHz accuracy for 
improved log checking.



-          Making all logs public, once the contest results are made public.



-          Club Competition (discussion of past seasons updates and 
improvements).



-          Remote-Controlled-Station contest entries.
