Greetings,

I am not sure of the intent of a recent AMSAT-BB submission related to JH3XCU/1 and his entry or lack of entry of specific information into the AO-7 web site logger. As far as I can tell he is a competent operator. I also note when searching the web that almost all of his web information is in his native language (Japanese) and I therefore presume that there may be a language related issue possibly.

If there is an issue with his submissions appropriate use of statistical filtering is always possible to do on the collected information.

I probably have hundreds of QSO's via AO-7 where I only talked to myself, often times on purpose just to measure the loopback frequency. I don't generally even bother to log any loopbacks or QSOs anymore. In most cases others enter information from the other side of the QSO so I see no need to duplicate the information which is also a statistical problem depend on the use of the web site collected data.

I hope we can all be more tolerant and give JH3XCU/1 the benefit of the doubt especially since he is a fellow licensed amateur operator.

Best regards to all. KG4QWC
