[CQ-Contest] eQSL change of policy

[Jim Rhodes]

Let me get this straight. You may or may not keep a log, that is up to you. 
They are now saying that if you can't confirm the QSO because you don't 
have a log, then you can't view the card, so you can't get the QSO data 
from THEIR card so that you know what to put on your card. In other works 
if I needed a card from VE5 all I would have had to do was send you a card 
with made up information on it & you would have put the same information on 
your card and posted it back to me. to me this just confirms that they 
needed to close that avenue. If I can't confirm a QSO I don't send an QSL, 
paper or e. If you do then you are not really helping the system.

Or am I mistaken. Is there another reason that you would be unable to 
confirm a QSO?
