[NLRS] 10 GHz & Up Log Submissions deadline (10/??)

[Zack Widup]

That could be. I wrote to the contest manager at ARRL and still haven't
heard back. Just to be safe, I busted my butt yesterday evening getting my
log ready to send in. I used the W0JT logging spreadsheet. I got it sent at
2350Z on Oct. 14. So I just made it.

Interesting was that I got a response from a robot saying it received my
log. In past years there wasn't even a log robot for the 10 GHz contest
logs.

This was the best year I've ever had in the 10 GHz contest. I made four 24
GHz QSO's, first time for me in the "And Up" category. Score was
approximately 17K.

73, Zack W9SZ
