NO   your all wrong Paul

the ones that get WACKED are the operators that GUESS at the call instead of
asking for 4 repeats.

I have NEVER been WACKED by working a casual operator.... NEVER - and I make
at least 15,000 contest QSO's EVERY YEAR .....

Stop this spreading of FALSE information......

Casual operators that work a few (or one) contest station are what makes
that contest station win.

If you ONLY worked other contest stations... then EVERYONE would have
EXACTLY the same score.....   Think about it!

casually operate, often don't send in a log, may use a paddle on CW instead
of a memory keyer (inducing more possible errors), and are more inclined to
logging errors.
