Good point.
The funny thing is, even though all of the circumstantial evidence points to GJ0KE being a phony (and I received a private email from a UK station assuring me that NO G0 1x2 calls had ever been issued, thus, no Gx0 2x2 calls had ever been issued)... up to and including ClubLog's automation informing me that the call was bogus, when I did my last upload... what if it's not?
I know, the odds are overwhelmingly against it being legit... and I fully expect to lose the Q and the mult on 15... but if it's not legit, how will this be handled?
Anyone actually know? (Not speculate, we can speculate all day... and usually do... )
