Hi,
Do you think it's possible these stations just made a typo in their
macros? Typing 559 by accident instead of 599.
I don't know all the ways of generating macros. I use MMTTY by itself and
when setting up my macros I often put 599 directly in them (rather than
using %r) plus whatever the exchange is for the contest. I can see myself
fumble-fingering my way to 559 and not noticing it.

Hello Shelby,
You are right, I believe we missed each other in this Contest.
Regarding the "599", I received "559" a couple of times. Logged the
received RST as 559. Wondering if the log he(they) sends in will list the
sent RST as 559? The RST was definitely 559 as made sure the signal was
solid copy before making the change to the log. Will be interesting to
find
out what the log checking program has to say regarding the unusual RST
value.
Hope you and your family have a healthy and prosperous 2011, Shelby.
