Simply make them available on line for download - for 1 or 2 years. How
much Disk Space could that consume?? 1.5 Terabyte drives cost under $150 at
Newegg.

Subject: Re: [VHFcontesting] logs are members property
Hello to all.....ROGER ROGER.......It may be a waste of web space to
publish all the logs, but certainly the logs of the top 10 in every
cagegory should be published. Others could be published at the
discretion of the Contest Branch. In every other realm, contest entries
become the property of the group that administers the contest.
I have never understood the reasons that logs should be kept secret. I
know that this idea has something to do with HF contesting, but I cannot
understand at all why it matters.
We should all do as Frank has suggested: Request / demand the release /
publication of the logs(top 10 or all of them). I just don't know how
to do this or where to send the request / demand. Help me
out.....flames will be immediately consigned to the bit bucket.....
