   * For Field Day 2020 only, Class D stations may work all other Field Day stations, including other Class D stations, for points.
   * In addition, for 2020 only, an aggregate club score will be published, which will be the sum of all individual entries indicating a specific club (similar to the aggregate score totals used in ARRL affiliated club competitions).
+===== For Our Club =====
+We'll be able to operate independently from our home QTH and add our club's name to the submission for an aggregate result.
+===== Logging The Results =====
+I made a spreadsheet for those who wish to submit their logs electronically but don't have a logging software.  It's a bit of a multi step process, but I think it'll be easier than transcribing hand written notes over manually.  See [[/howto/fielddaylog |here for more details]].
