Wow, when did using someone elses station, be a valid qso for YOUR own station?
Wow, I guess I can call every person i hear off the moon but can't copy and then just ask W5UN for a recording of all my contacts so they will be good contacts. Even tho I diddn't get any calls correct at MY station, I was able to correct all my mistakes by using a recording from HIS station, yeah that sounds valid for sure. I do not have any problems with recording your qso nd after the pass fill in the gaps with stuff ya forgot. or I'll even give ya a stretch stuff ya missed. But when it involves a third partys station then it is NOT a valid QSO. Joe WB9SBD Joe On 2/6/2011 4:51 PM, Zachary Beougher wrote: > Hi Ed and Nigel, > > I agree this is reasonable as well.
