Good news - and bad news.
My card came today with cw contacts for 20/30/12/17 meters confirmed.  That
makes mixed #332, CW # 313.

What is bad news is that three contacts on RTTY are not confirmed- nor
mentioned as to why they didnt confirm them, or 3 SSB contacts or three
other CW contacts.  Now, I can almost understand one or two "maybes" due to
qrm and weak signals etc.  but 9 unconfirmed contacts are a bit much.
None of these were in the online logs, thus the reason for several
"insurance contacts".  Looks like I didnt pay the insurance costs either.
How I can get a RTTY contact logged here, after seeing my call and a report
on my screen,  and not be in tgheir logs, is beyond me.  The SSB
non-contacts are disapointing - so I come away from a major expedition,
major effort and time on my part to listen for numerous hours, calling and
calling , trying to figure out where they were listening etc.  and to fail
to get either SSB or RTTY confirmed. Its probable I will be in my 80s the
next time anyoe goes there, and wont give a hoot.  HI.
So - didnt get Phone #303 or RTTY #221

But- thanks guys for a major effort  now when is someone going to put in a
real effort for VU4/7 ?
One that I can at least hear?
