Ah. So I will instead note that the Sweepstakes rules don’t specify which
calendar is to be used when determining the prescribed check. :)

But the RS in the RST is completely subjective. What is S9-extremely strong
signals-compared to? I choose to compare them all to the signal being sent
back to Earth by Pioneer 10.

On the subject of the appropriateness of sending something other than the

Isn't a signal report part of the required exchange in many contests?
I wonder how many folks who want accurate SS checks ever send anything other
than 5NN / 59 / 599 as their signal reports in those contests.
