"Guidelines for E-mail submission of JARL contest
This guideline shows the e-mail submission form of the All Asian DX Contest.
You can submit your summary/logs by an e-mail as an attached file or a text
body.
We recommend that all of participants should submit their summary/logs in
accordance with this guidelines.
But in the case of All Asian DX Contest, we accept any kinds of e-mailed
submission for all participant's convenience who use any kind of logging
software.
The reason why we prescribed an E-mailed submission format is to make our
reception and checking the submission efficiently and fairly.
The exceptional reception causes us the unexpected extrawork. So we request you
again to submit your logs/summary on our recommendation described below.
Anyway, if you send a submission on our format, that will be analyzed
automatically and immediately, so that you can receive a reply mail of an
acknowledgement or an error.
JARL E-mail submisson format
All data fields must be written between <tag> and </tag>.
"tag" repesent the meaning of the field.
<tag>specification
This year, any text type form of logsheet is acceptable. The form may include
header, footer and QSO lines. QSO line can be consisted from the terms of
"Station worked", "Date", "Time", "Frequency" or "Band", "Exchange sent",
"Exchange received", "New multiplier" and "QSO Points".
If you don't mention the term "Exchange sent" in the QSO lines, you must denote
about the number sent, for example "All number sent were 599+# (your age)" on
the Comment field in the summary.
If you are a CT user, *.all logs are preferable for us. Please send them NOT AS
AN ATTACHED file but copy & paste between

If the QSO points described on *.all file don't match the new rule, you should
re-calculate your appropriate score and write it on your summary sheet. Don't
forget writing your exchange sent on your summary sheet, because *.all file
doesn't have it.
