[Dx-qsl] 9X/RV6LNA

[Panos Stamatis]

I had thought to make a web page to collect all these operations are 
invalid.
But how to update the page with these are valid now while were unvalid in 
past? I am afraid how reliable ould be.
Beside this when i started this i found the following problem. A close 
friend of mine from Greece has at least one card which didn't count (i think 
a past bouvet operation) while another one from Greece also has the same 
card counting for his total.
Ok it's the game and i like to play but...
I believe that it would be better...
- if arrl had a list with no valid operations
- if they had received papers for valid operations publiced in internet
- i hate when i have credited an entity and in next application these 
credits remove! I can't understand this. I believe that their program must 
be such a way as to not remove a credited entity. Imagine that i had 
credited a hz, i saw several of them in bands without to work them and after 
that in my next application hz was off! It is not right. Even it is their 
mistake to give me an entity, this must not remove in future. I was very 
ungry when it was happened and ready not submit ever in future, but as i say 
before... this is the game... and i like to play...
