#Log Robot

A log robot is the automatic system that receives a Cabrillo file after a contest and answers with a confirmation or an error message. It reads the header, checks the format and often counts the QSOs before a human ever looks at the log. The wording of its messages differs from contest to contest, but the causes are usually the same few problems. Articles under this tag explain how to read these messages and what to fix. They also describe how to keep the original file safe while you correct a copy.
