Maybe it's just me, but I am starting to be irritated by the ARRL scoring of
logs submitted for the VHF contests. Several times in the past 2 years or
so, my final score posted has bee lower that what was submitted as "claimed"
score. For the past September contest results just posted my score is
shown almost 5000 points below what I submitted. This would not concern me
if we were still back in the day of paper logs and multi-page cross matrix
dupe sheets, but I pay for and use logging software that tracks and flags
dupes as well as maintaining a running and final score. The score I submit
should be no different that what is posted in the results, minus some
minimal amount for fat fingering incorrect callsigns and grids into the
logging software.
There, I said it. And it didn't help. I'm still irritated.
