Log Accuracy

≈ Comments Off on Log Accuracy

One of the frequently asked questions is “Why can’t activators upload their own logs?”.  And the answer we give is “Because, even with the checking process of the National Coordinator (or National Log Manager), too many errors still get through.”

Mistakes happen… it is easy enough to transcribe a paper log and get transpose letters in callsigns, or get a P2P reference wrong (either by mis-hearing or mistyping).

But the following (quite common) mistakes should never make it as far as Logsearch… firstly, the Activator should check their own log, but equally the NC/NLM should spot them (or, at least the first four):

  • Incorrect STATION_CALLSIGN
  • Incorrect OPERATOR
  • Incorrect DATE
  • Incorrect REFERENCE
  • Incorrect BAND
  • Incorrect MODE

So a gentle request to all activators: please check the log before submitting it. And to National Log Managers: please do some basic checks (Date, Station Call, Operator, Reference) before uploading.

Thank you!

For interest, the following activity (grouped by Programme) took place during August 2020, and have been uploaded to Logsearch. To add a little competitiveness, it is sorted by Average Number of QSOs per Activation (with a qualifying reference count of two references).
Having said and done that, a special shout out to KFF, whose KFF Marathon has certainly got the activators out, whilst VKFF maintains a good presence “down under”!
Also, a “Mention In Despatches” for UP44WFF’s activity in UNFF-0082.

Database Tidy-Up – Broken Callsigns

≈ Comments Off on Database Tidy-Up – Broken Callsigns

I’m trying to tidy up the QSO database, and trapping broken callsigns. I’ve fixed many, with obvious errors – eg 0/1 instead of O/I but some are not so obvious…
If you wish to claim any of the following QSOs, please post to the Forum with details…
