[CQ-Contest] Sweepstakes Exchange History

[N4ZR]

I had 3 QSOs in the 1954 SS but unfortunately my old paper log doesn't 
show the full exchange.  I was running a Heath AT-1 at 20 watts and a 
Hallicrafters S-40 receiver.  My 1955 SS log only reflects sent and 
received numbers, section, and points accrued - in those days the rules 
allowed 1 point for each half of the QSO.  No indication of a check or 
precedence, though I sort of remember them being required
