Yes, don't worry people.  As the 160 op at W7RM Saturday night, I had
a HUGE stateside pile, probably 100-125 0-pointers.  And if I worked
you, it's in the log.

Not wanting to really bring THAT topic up again...

I would think that for speeds sake being consistent  in the exchange would help 
speed things up.  As far as my software knowing what zone your in - what does 
it matter?  If the rules were to exchange addresses, you exchange addresses 
even if your software can supply the address from a database.

The whole point to any exchange is to pass information.  If I just wanted to 
fill my log with names and addresses I could turn off the radio and start up my 
CD and type in made up calls.

Just my opinion,

de KI0OT, Brad

Hello fellows,
Is it really a problem how contest exchange looks like in the
particular QSO ?
The only one objective indicator is correctly received exchange
in both logs and doesn't matter how it looks like if two guys
understand one another. If they don't - one them always can ask a
question.

P.S. Don't you (or your logging programme) really know in which
zone P40E is ?
