>> ANNUAL UPDATE <<<
This is the time of year when the deadline for the 2009 Honour Roll and
Annual Listing looms large. Applications and updates submitted on-line on or
before 1 February will count for the 2009 tables so long as the supporting
cards sent to checkpoints are postmarked no later than that date. Updates
postmarked after 1 February will be processed in the normal way but scores
will be held over to the following appearance. Listing in the tables is
restricted to those participants who have updated their scores at least once
in the previous five years. In the case of the 2009 tables this means since
the 2004 annual listings. If you wish to remain listed, check to see that
you qualify and, if not, make a submission on or before 1 February 2009. The
tables will appear on the RSGB IOTA website in the Spring.
