There's only 10 days left to turn in your logs for the June VHF QSO 
Party.  Logs must either be emailed, or postmarked, by Juny 13, 2005 
this year.  If you participated at all, even for just a few contacts, 
please consider turning in a log, to demonstrate ongoing interest to the 
ARRL.  And don't forget to include your club affiliation, if appropriate.

A reminder on how to submit, quoted directly from the ARRL web site:

6.1.1. Electronic submissions in the Cabrillo format may be emailed to 
JuneVHF at arrl.org <mailto:JuneVHF at arrl.org>

6.1.2. Hand written paper logs or diskettes mailed to June VHF, ARRL, 
225 Main St, Newington, CT 06111.

6.1.3. Web entries submitted via the web-based applet at: 
http://www.b4h.net/cabforms/

6.2. Entries that have been electronically generated must submit their 
log file in the Cabrillo file format. Paper print outs of electronic 
files are not acceptable substitutes.

I know that this is the easiest contest log submission deadline for me 
to miss every year.  I always want to look over my log for mistakes 
before turning it in, and then along comes Field Day, then recovering 
from Field Day (I still don't have everything put away!), etc.  In fact, 
as soon as I finish with this message, I plan to go and look over my log 
and submit it, because mine is still pending submission!

P.S., if you happened to use VHF-DX to do your logging this year, did 
you remember to make the switch between Standard Time and Daylight 
Savings Time within the program?  If not, all your log times will 
probably be off by an hour, and one hour of your log will probably be 
rejected by the contest robot as falling outside the allowable hours of 
operation!
