No award. I was looking at the UHF contest summaries at arrl.org and saw
that for 2010 where I made one or two contacts they didn't consider the
report correct and penallized me for working stations that hadn't sent
in a log and my final score is -1. That year or last year my whole log
and the summary and the certification statement all fit on a post card
so I sent it in that way.
