Dave,

Yes, that does sound backwards.  Maybe that is one of the reasons that the 
Rookie Roundup is not as popular as it should be.

IMHO:  That is an issue that ought to be addressed, but is a separate (if 
somewhat related) issue from this one.  

73, ron w3wn

Many have mentioned about how important receiving a certificate in the mail 
early in our contesting career. Guess what ... the winners of the ARRL Rookie 
Roundup are only provided with digital e-mailed certificates. We more 
experienced ops are getting certs in the mail.

This seems backwards to me.
