   So long as it's in proper ADIF format, it shouldn't be a problem.  Most   
   computer logging programs, if you use one, can produce and ADIF   
   automatically.   
      
   For most ARRL awards, you'll need the following (but check their website for   
   the definitive requirements)   
   Call sign   
   Date & time   
   Band   
   Mode   
      
   You do not need RST.  The mode has to be in the form that they recognize.   
   Again, check their website.
