All, There was some confusion at ARRL about ET7L. It was among the cards I submitted at the recent PNWDXC in Portland. My application was acted upon quickly and according to the online LOTW account it was not credited. However, when I received the hard copy credit slip and credit listing it was credited.
I brought this to the attention of the DXCC Desk and was advised of the following in an email just received: The ET7L contact is not acceptable for DXCC credit. Any credit which was erroneously given has since been removed from every DXCC customers’ record. We discovered there was a problem with the Online DXCC program issuing credit for the call. Once I had figured this out, we made the necessary changes in the system. 73 Kip W6SZN -----Original Message----- From: Topband [mailto:topband-boun...@contesting.com] On Behalf Of Bob Lawson N6RW Sent: Thursday, August 11, 2016 7:47 AM To: topband@contesting.com Subject: Re: Topband: ET7L NOT VALID I submitted my cards with some others and my returned DXCC Award Credit Slip showed the ET7L cards _were _accepted. Now, when I look on-line, they are _not _included in the "Granted" list.
