[CQ-Contest] massaging the logs

[Chuck]

Honestly, I have to wonder WHY all the concern
with someone who records the entire contest that
transpired at THEIR station going back and doing
some 'after contest' review.

Time limits are not going to stop someone who
wants to do it. If they want to do it.. they'll
make the time necessary to meet any deadline.

If you impose an artificial deadline to deal with
a 'problem' such as this, you risk damaging those
folks who are not affected.

There is not ONE person who has not gone back
'post-contest' and made
corrections/changes/additions' to their logs
based on notes, recalled items, or observed items
from other sources that drove them to do 'post
contest' work.

One benefit of folks doing this is that if they
BUSTED YOUR call and their post contest work
FIXED it.. then you might just be saved from a 3
QSO penalty along with them. If it happened to be
a mult.... well.....

Strikes me as a tempest in a teapot.
