Authenticity Guaranteed » AG Required to Join? Jul 20, 2007 06:35 PM (Total replies: 41)

As this discussion originated in November of 2005 and was last commented on (before me) in May of 2007, either we are late to the dance or the discussion continues...

As a general concept, I believe that the AG should continue to be a requirement for awards. I think that it is easy enough to get, although it may take some time (in my case, two weeks after I joined eQSL due to priorities and procrastination).

People register with eQSL for one reason: to exchange QSL cards electronically. It is a two step process: 1. Sign up 2. Verify your identity. Even though you can contribute your logs immediately after registering, verification of authenticity is critical for the integrity of the program.

I think the holding pen is a great idea... feel free to upload all the QSOs you'd like from day one. They will be matched against the other logs in the system. Each time you log in a big red number will be prominently displayed indicating the amout of confirmations you have pending - both AG and non-AG, but no indicator as to who the confirmed stations are. When you get your AG the curtain is pulled, so to speak, and the confirmations come flooding into your in-box.
