That used to be a rule it is no longer one. the rule even said that you had to keep a call log for every CQ and if no answer put a line through it. Just an FYI VB station is in Canada so he's not regulated by the FCC anyway.

Well, I am probably the youngster  here (no disrespect,  i mean one of the newest hams in the group ) but isn't it somewhere in the FCC regs that all operators are supposed to keep a log of all activity?  Does the FCC excuse that requirement if the contact is not listed on the stations preferred 3rd party website?  My guess is no....

The guy sounds like a flake !   Being an Official Observer has no weight in Canada.

 

There are some people who have had their QRZ info removed upon request  or by QRZ  for being naughty.

 

Tell the guy his opinions and $2  will buy him a cup of coffee !

Subject: [070] Frustration with QRZ

 

Well frustration hits again.

QRZ access has been spotty for a couple days. Also they have managed to lose 

my VB7150 page altogether, creating problems when contacts try to confirm my identity. 

This has been reported to QRZ support and it has been "Dispatch Ticket to HQ".

Yes I am a paid up supporter.

I had the pleasure of working a new, to me, member only to be told -

"I don't log any body not in Zed. Maybe you should fix the QRZ 

record for your call.  I am not an official observer."

I tried to explain I was OK but due to QRZ's issues he would not log the contact. Hope all 

Florida hams don't think that QRZ is the absolute definitive reference when it comes to 

determining station legitimacy.
