[CQ-Contest] Did I bust the call sign?

[Zack Widup]

I agree - there were a few QSO's I made in a half-dazed state where I 
thought "Did I log that right?" I didn't write any of it down, so I still 
have no way of knowing. Guess I'll find out eventually.

This time I sent in my log 10 minutes after the contest was over. 
Sometimes that's not possible, though. One year I had to go running off to 
another part of the country the next day and couldn't get my log sent in 
till almost the deadline.
