[NLRS] UHF Contest robot problems fyi - update #2

[John (JK) Kalenowsky, K9JK]

NLRSers and BCers,

It now *appears* to be working, I just sent a test log (with some
blatant errors) to the augustuhf at arrl.org e-mail address and, as I
expected, received an "UNABLE TO PROCESS LOG SUBMISSION" e-mail reply
(and fairly quickly).

HOWEVER, >>IF<< you have ALREADY e-mailed a log for August UHF, might I
suggest that you wait, perhaps through the rest of today to see if you
DO receive a Reply from the robot and that your call shows up in the
Logs Received list (there were 3 calls listed when I checked a few
minutes ago) as I *believe* logs that were received by ARRL have been 
saved and can (will?) be redirected through the robot to complete the 
process now that the robot is working (*appears* to be).

73, JK
