Dear Nit-Picker Pete:
I don't have a lot of spare time to check for
email typos etc. from my handwritten logbook.
These emails are only for conversation's sake.
I don't spell check either and really don't care.
My official log is on a different computer than the
one I use for email and already uploaded to LOTW.
That's the only log that counts and it's correct.
N2SLO can verify I correctly logged his FN30 there.
Why would someone who never QSL's even care?
