[Dx-qsl] a reminder for submittees

Wed Oct 27 09:27:56 EDT 2004

In my recent submission there were a number of cards that were for 30 meters.
Unfortunately, some were hand written.
3 of these 30 meter cards were rejected as being dupes for that entity already recorded 
for TEN meters.
Even though the column clearly said MHz and the handwritten '10' was decipherable, the 
card checker mistakenly thought it was '10 meters'.
The funny part of this was, I had attached a little post-it not indicating that it was "10 
mHz=30 meters"
But being the September crunch, the data entry person missed it.
The other qsl's that had 30 meter or 10 MHz qsls were credited correctly.
I'm sure that eye strain played a serious part. I can't imagine perusing the thousands of 
cards without a serious developing headache.
Now please understand I'm not bitc...., A quick email to the DXCC desk resulted in this 
being fixed and my credits being updated.
I just want to remind other submitters to add the post-it notes to qsl cards that have 30 
meter qsls.
