While I may be in the minority, on this situation.... I still contend that 
ANYTHING done to the log, post contest, that may effect the score, is, at 
least unethical, if not illegal! Please explain the difference between 
"typo", and "not copied correctly"? The contest has a "defined" time frame, 
and NOTHING, that may effect the score, should be done outside that "time 
frame"? If I make several contacts, pre-contest, then "fix the time", would 
that be allowed? Actually I was only "fixing the typo"? I know, I know...the 
time is determined by the computer clock, but if it was off, by several 
minutes, would that be a "typo"? If I wait long enough, but stay within the 
log submission requirement, there are several online QSL sites, that allow 
me to "compare" much of my log!
Paolo...I admire your effort in the log checking, I just believe that your 
"position", on "fixing the log", only encourages cheating?
