Good point, however if I am not sure of "your" exchange, the "??? again"
works perfectly! I also use "thanks for the contest contact" for those "low
numbers" late in a contest, or a new multiplier, especially VK "double"
multipliers! :)
I believe that a lot of the "different" exchange formats we are seeing is
due to the influx of "new" RTTY contesters? In the last two, NAQP and SARTG,
10% of my contacts in each were with "new" stations, stations that I had
never worked before! Most of us that have been doing this for some time,
have adapted to the different formats, and I doubt seriously if there will
ever be and agreement on "what is exactly correct"?
Please, "just call me and send me somewhat of an exchange"! I'll "make it
work"!
