[RTTY] How fast?

Hi,

Thanks to all for contacts in the NA Sprint RTTY contest.
The conditions were poor, but I managed to work 62 contacts,
most of them on 40m, the 80m propagation was very disappointing.
Just an idea to the rules, won't it be convenient for the 
non-NA stations to put "DX" in their exchange for QTH ? I have been asked
several times for the state and one station even refused to make
a contact with me ( probably thought I want to make a non-contest
qso ). I have to manually convert my log. I have used N1MM set for NAQP
what was OK for TX but I had to put the received # in the name field ... any
hints here for a contest log setup in N1MM ?
Anyway had fun trying to attract the NA stations from the DX side. I like 
the QSY rule, though I haven't been called very often after calling CQ on
the vacant frequency ( poor conditions ).

Thanks, but its not necessary to resubmit unless your log has changed since
the first submission.  You can submit as many times as you like before the
deadline next Sunday.  Log checking uses the most recent timestamp.  Bruce
will force all the "stuck" logs through to the log server now that the robot
is fixed.

Probably because "DX" is not in the QTH field.  (Specifically "DX", not the
country prefix or anything else.)

They count for QSO's but not for mults of course.
