A good question.  My rule is if I can't print the info, even if I know
it in advance, I didn't get it and therefore there is no QSO.  

Ok, I do fudge a little bit.  Normally, unless the signal is VERY
strong, I want to see the info print twice before I accept it.  Both
callsign and exchange.  In the case of knowing in advance, I'll accept
it if it prints only once.

Sound reasonable?
