It was apparent to me that several stations were probably running
older software, when I was told "QSOB4" (God, I hate to be told
that! OK, I make mistakes, but so do YOU GUYS. I mean, it could
happen!) when we had worked on a different band (thereby getting the
mult) but not on the current band. I missed a few Q's that way, but
I'll bet the "I don't log dupes or zero-pointers" dudes missed a lot
of potential points!
