THE 2008 CRYSTAL SET DX CONTEST RESULTS

Check out the new pictures! Note, that your final score may be a bit different than you submitted due to changes during the log checking process. Please contact me if there is a problem with your score. There were at least three contestants logs that got lost somewhere in hyperspace, apparently due to being treated as SPAM by the e-mail service. If you don't see your log posted, please contact me.
Thanks,
Jack
