Paul,
I've seen reports for the June VHF QSO party where QSO's were busted for
incorrectly reporting (or otherwise incorrectly transcribing) a multiplier.
Again, I say Bravo ARRL and ARRL volunteers.
By the way...as a correction to my previous note, I operated W2AAA in the ARRL
10-meter contest. If you transcribed a 59 report from W2AAA, then the QSO is
busted. None were given out specifically to offer people something to be proud
about (the ability to copy unexpected information in the heat of battle).
HNY!
Ev, W2EV

Ev,
Careful Ev.
I have been told that I don't have to have a multiplier correct. That the
log checking software will supply the correct multiplier for a contact.
Is that correct?
What the rules say, and what and how they check, has always been two
different stories for 45-50 years.
