OK, I'll bite ;)


- Using RBN in a phone contest: *DING*

- Working stations which do not count in your contest: *DING*

- Making CW QSO in a phone contest: *DING*

- Making QSO on a WARC band during phone contest: *DING*

- Entering above QSO's in the phone contest log: *DING*

- Asking questions on a contest mailing list on all the above *DING*


Anyway, I am sure you enjoyed those hours of participation and that's what it 
is all about in contesting :)


73 Mark, PA5MW


(p.s. using QRP in a phone contest: *DING* )
