Re: Recompute results-73 QSOs with "Broken ARRL Section"
|
+ AA6YQ comments below
After seeing Dave recommend another user invoke the "Recompute" function, I decided to do it as well. Result was 73 QSOs, 60 of them from 2016, flagged as ?"Broken ARRL Section". Interestingly, there are a few cases where multiple contacts with the same station resulted in different inconsistencies being reported. According to QRZ right now, N0UR is located in Steele County, MN. I do have the "Automatically recompute realtime award tracking" enabled. Should I be concerned by this, and if so, what actions should I take to remediate it?

+ In a QSO with a station in the US, Alaska, or Hawaii,? a broken ARRL Section is one that is inconsistent with its QSO's State and County. + In a QSO with a station in Canada, a broken ARRL Section is one that is inconsistent with its Province. + As stated in
"If the Alt key is depressed when the Recompute button is clicked, correctable errors in primary and secondary administrative subdivisions and in ARRL sections will be corrected and the corrections reported as Actions; for example, each inconsistent ARRL section item will be replaced with a value deduced from its QSO's DXCC entity, State, and County items."
+ While there are contests in which your QSO partner's ARRL Section is part of the exchange, I'm not aware of any awards based on ARRL Sections.
