Yes. Contesting has changed drastically over the years. When many of us 
started, we logged on paper and kept paper dupe sheets. There were no 
memory keyers. And then there was one that kept track of serial numbers! 
Contest rules have gotten dumber. All of the attention paid to "records" 
is nonsense.

Use of Check Partial is, in reality, assistance. So are Call History 
files. N1MM depends on CH files to determine whether a spot is a 
multiplier.

Some state QSO parties consider a person who drives while another 
operates a second operator.
