[NLRS] RE: Sept. VHF Contest Affiliated Club Competition Results & NLRS

[Henderson, Dan N1ND]

Hi Jon:
 
I will check on this Monday.  As this is probably the first time that any club has submitted over 50 logs for the September VHF club competetion as it is new I suspect the error comes from that.  As QST has gone to print, I will get the appropriate correction to the web pages and get a Feedback item in QST next month.  I will get back to you once I find the sorting problem with that query in the database. I apoligize for the problem.

	Hi Dan.   
	 
	We, the Northern Lights Radio Society, are disappointed to see our affiliated club score for the Sept '04 VHF contest listed in the Medium Category.   The club submitted 51 logs which should have placed us into the Unlimited Category.
	 
	The club worked very hard to generate this level of activity and to submit logs.   51 logs represents the first time that the NLRS has made the Unlimited category for the September VHF contest.   We have attained this level twice before in the January VHF contest ('97 and '04). 
	 
	As a note, I would like to sensitive the League that there are other affiliated clubs besides Mt. Airy VHF and PVRC who can put together 51 or more logs.   In scanning previous year results, I see these clubs correctly listed signally in the Unlimited category.   In January '02, Mt. Airy VHF club won the Unlimited category (alone in this category) with 50 logs.
	 
	In closing I asked if we can correct this.   I'm concerned that any hard copy has gone to print.   We would like to see the web site page corrected.    In addition, as an affiliated club, we are interested in what type of corrective action(s) can be taken to help reduce this kind of error in the future.   The club is receptive to helping.
	 
	Regards,
