Log checking for several recent contests that used the FT4 and FT8 modes
has shown undesirably large numbers of claimed QSOs that receive
not-in-log ("NIL") status from the other station. The WSJT development
team has worked together with contest sponsors and log checkers to
analyze the probable causes of these NILs. Our findings and some
operating advice for future contests are posted here:

and will also appear in the May-June 2020 issue of NCJ, the National
Contest Journal.
