Contact rules specifically state that you must copy your call sign from your QSO partner before sending a report. Regardless of the fact that some misguided contest rules may allow ‘contacts’ in that form, those contacts would not be good for other awards (DXCC, VUCC, etc). Eliminating 73 – a bad idea. If I send 73 and the other guy receives it, then he knows it was a good contact. If I continue to send my report then he should know to continue sending RRR. Otherwise he may log a contact that was incomplete. 73, Russ K2TXB
