That is correct Bob. There are no penalties for busted QSOs in the NAQP.
They are removed from your log without penalty. The only penalty is that
you lose the QSO. The contest managers and log checkers discussed this
recently, and we decided to leave it this way for one more year. The
NAQP began as more of a "friendly" event (hence the word "Party" in the
name) but it has evolved over the years into a fairly competitive
contest. Some of us feel that some type of penalty scheme needs to be
implemented, if for no other reason than to encourage accuracy
proficiency. We will re-visit this rule again next year.

Hi Guys
In many contest, there are penalties for NIL, even tho I have been in NAQP a
number of years I decided to look closely at rules. I could not find any
mention of penalties for NIL. Are there really no penalties in NAQP ?
