I thought there had to be a "moderator" helping to count "1, 2, 3, 4, ..."
and then telling you that it is a "good" QSO.....

I cannot find anything in the DXCC rules that say you must exchange
anything other than a callsign. Maybe it is elsewhere. I would assume
that in a net scenario where the DX is fed the callsign some other form
for data must be exchanged ie a signal report.

I thought I saw somewhere that in order to consider a QSO valid, you
had to exchange callsigns and one other piece of information. The
other piece of info can be anything. We typically exchange signal
reports as DXers but on VHF it's usually grid squares. Exchanging
signal reports on VHF is more rare.
Some contests don't have a signal report as part of the exchange, e.g. NAQP.

Well, actually it IS a bad analogy because it isn't an analogy at all.
Saying that signal reports aren't checked for DXCC and saying that DXCC
doesn't require a signal report is exactly the same thing. Please
explain the difference if you disagree.

p.s. Please tell us which major contests you know of that verify signal
reports as part of the log checking process and assign a penalty for an
error.

1. Log checking does not include the signal report for any major contest
I'm aware of. It isn't even checked for DXCC.
And DXCC does not require a signal report. Bad analogy.
