Peter,

We're not discussing those with physical challenges such as you are
mentioning nor are the rules written to address these sorts of exceptions.

The contest is as follows: (from cqww.com)

CQ WW DX Contest Rules 2011
SSB: October 29 - 30 CW: November 26 - 27
Starts 0000 UTC Saturday Ends 2400 UTC Sunday

The contest ends at 2400 UTC Sunday. (Or, 23:59:59 really)

Clearly, if someone does no logging at all during the contest, and begins
the logging process after the contest ends, he is not logging during the
contest.

Such a practice would extend the contest period for that operator and is not
permitted in any document I have ever seen for any contest.

73,

Bob W5OV

I don´t agree I don´t find the rule that tape logging is not allowed.
Where do I find that rule about transcriptions?
No rule prohibits tape logging.
The logging was done during the contest.

I am just thinking of the blind, who never could send in a log without
transcription.

> 2nd situation:

> Op A is tired before the contest and decides to tape record everything
and write it down after the contest, rather than keep a computer log
during the contest. No other person helped him with the tape recording
or transcription functions before or after the contest. Is this allowed
in the SO Unasisted category?

Short answer: No.

Explanation: This is a trick question because transcribing the contest
after the contest is not allowed in any category. The logging must be done
during the contest period - the contest ends at 23:59z.
