Wow.... 3D2 Fiji isn't very high on the most wanted list (#168 on 
Clublog) so I'm puzzled by the whole thing. None of the calls are in my 
log (whew!) and I need Fiji for a band-entity only (12, 17, 30, 40 80 
and 160). What set off such an apparently thorough investigation? If the 
accusations are correct, it looks like they've scammed somewhere north 
of $5k through Clublog's OQRS system and that probably doesn't sit well 
with Clublog... When did all of this come to light?

73 & CU in the Pileups,
