It's patently obvious, Robert, that you have again been spending waaaay too
much time cooped up inside that VW bus you bought from those hippies. The
residual grass smoke fumes are affecting you...or you've been holed up in
there with the engine running again.
Quack,
I throw caution to the wind.
If the guy sent me 50k, I would naturally assume he was on the straight and
narrow and doing the right thing: "50 watts. Over." If it was N5RP, then
log it as you copy it and send a copy to the FCC.
If the guy sends me 005, I typically copy 005. If I copy 005 and log 5, so
what?
There were guys (and gals, I hope) sending KW and others sending K.
Sometimes I logged the KW stations as K. Again, so what?
It all gets back to that old debate as to whether to copy "ATT" and log
"ATT" or log "100". It all ends up meaning the same thing.
Do what you think is right. Do what you think you would have sent in the
same situation. Do what you would want the other guy receving your exchange
to do.
