Re: Topband: ARRL 160

This chatter has got me thinking about 
something I have wondered often. Seems 
like this might be a good place to ask 
about it.

What happens if the other station copies 
your call or info wrong? Do both scores 
take a hit?

For instance; I work W1AW he copies KA1J 
and copies CO instead of CT. 

Or... W1AW copies KA1O and CT. 

Both stations send in their logs. Would I 
take a hit if the other operator gets it 
wrong?

So many times during the contests 
now-a-days people don't acknowledge the 
contact and immediately go back to CQ TEST 
or scroll on by if they are S&P & I'm in a 
run. I've often wondered if there is a 
penalty to both sides or if the robot 
looks for a match and only penalizes the 
one who made the mistake.
