Hi Thomas, Sound advice indeed!, I just might take you up on it but I suppose then I'd be accused of being a 'stick-in-the-mud' when really, I'm only trying to do what's best for everybody's benefit.
It's a lose - lose situation hi ... but I won't let it get to me.
Thanks for the encouragement Thomas.
I've batted your comment Stateside, you never know, after the 5th attempt, the message just might sink in ... ha-ha-ha ... but I'm *NOT* going to hold my breath.

Like I mentioned ... don't these people 'look' at what they write? ...
or note how those that fill in the log correctly do it? ... or even
read the Amsat mail?.
What can one do?.
John, you can bellow

Hope this helps now ! If not, they are i...
Statistics are no use to man nor beast if they're incorrect - and over
the first 3 months of this year there are enough errors to ensure that
the statistics *ARE* wrong ... agreed, they're only small mistakes and
agreed that - "it's only a hobby" - but what is the point in filling
in the log in the first place if you're not going to do it correctly?.
Having pointed out the errors once, twice and three times on both
bulletin boards in the last 14 days I assumed that ought to be enough
- obviously it wasn't ... so I don't know about you but I'm not going
to bother anymore.
Since the main "contenders " are English speaking one cannot blame the
language. The panes are clear enough and cannot be misconscrued. The
hour glass is self explanitory - you yourself have explained more than
once how to fix things if they do occasionally go amok - (data is
"data") - I'm referring to the - 'remember me' - checkbox issue.
It's a pity such a useful resource is allowed to become a mess.
EOR ... (End of rant).
