Please be aware that the N1DID AO-7 log will now no longer show the correct results.
An example ...
4th December orbit 51254 JH3XCU/1 claimed 32 points ... from 915 contacts (no QSO's) to 947 contacts (no QSO's) for a single pass.
One station logged a QSO, claimed the points but logged the transponder as being OFF ... (which it couldn't have been if he made a QSO through it).
Such entries make a mockery of the object of the log.
Also - LA2QAA no longer edits the entries.

Easy solution...remove the "points" awarded...
Then it doesn't become a contest...
