Jerry, I am going by what was discussed on other PODXS 070 post-contest forums (PCF) on this reflector. 10-10's rules state you must exchange numbers over the air to be legal regardless if its a contest or not. Not so with 070. However, someone mentioned on
one of these PCF, sometime back, that in a 070 contest, all data must be exchanged over the air or it is not a legal contact. If you can look an op's info up after the contest, why take the time to exchange info during the contest period, when you could make contact with a station, log him/her and move on to the next station. After the contest is over, look the info of each station up and submit a log. (More contacts at a faster rate ; ) ) Sri for bloviating, Larry WA7HDZ # 404

If everyone gave out their number (070), if it was required, there is no reason why they shouldn't have copied it and if they missed it, I think it would be reasonable to ask for a repeat. There have been times in other contests when I've asked for something repeated. The other station responded with correct data. If I had submitted a log and any of required info was missing, the other station would have lost the points for the contact.

Virgil, It's my understanding, and someone can correct me if I am wrong, but if you miss the number,
or any other part of the exchange, it is not a
valid contact. However, if I am wrong on this, it may change my future scores. hiohi Larry

I just updated the labels on that timezone dropbox to be clearer (e.g. "East Coast: -0400") ... I had slowly been updating all the contests like that, because otherwise there's always submissions that are off by an hour, or +0400 instead of -0400! :)
