From what I can make out, a message on the Club Log forum will often get the problem sorted out. I've certainly found that Michael (G7VJR) is very responsive and willing to sort out things and the messages on the forums indicate that Alan (5B4AHJ) responds quickly to any concerns raised about validation. What happens when you upload your ADIF is that you get an emailed message back telling you the callsign, date and time of the QSO and what you had the country logged as, and then what Club Log thinks is correct. If you can provide evidence that you are correct then an exception is created to cover the new information. One of mine was as follows Callsign: RK6FS Date: 2000-08-27 10:45:14 Band: 10QSL: Yes Your log claims GEORGIA. Overriding your choice and using EUROPEAN RUSSIA. Now, I reckon Club Logs is right about that, so I've amended my log to show what I now believe is the correct country. If I didn't, I could contact 5B4AHJ and provide whatever proofs I had to say it wasn't as the system thinks, and these conversations are going on so it's not that Club Log is ignoring what you think it's just that it believes its own database until someone provides evidence to the contrary.

Re: [digitalradio] Clublogs... see standings versus others
I had a bunch of pages of rejected contacts, where it tried to say they were different countries, than I had logged. They were correct on a few of the eastern block USSR countries, when all the changes were being made there. Most of those have been straightened out, and the only mistakes now are such things as its refusal to accept mobile contacts such as stateside/M4, still wanting to log them as England. Changes are being made on a constant basis, and each one brings the data base more up-to-date, and correct. If one has definite proof, such as a QSL card, or some data base showing the correct country, then club log guys are more than willing to straighten the items out. But, you cannot expect them to be 100 prcent correct, as of this stage. I had a couple of contacts with expedition guys, usign separate calls, at the expedition sites, and they bounced them, until I proved that indeed they were correct, and it came out I was the only one (so far) who uploaded those particular calls to the system.
