[RTTY] RST SARTG RTTY

[Gary AL9A]

I agree not sending RST when required by the rules makes the contact 
invalid, but...

Most logging programs will automatically fill in the 599 for each QSO.  If 
we work one of these short cut artists should we then delete the default 599 
entry and submit the log with the missing field?  That will render the QSO 
invalid for my log, but what about his?  If he is logging 599 for each QSO 
without actually sending the numbers, who corrects his log?  If he isn't 
sending the RST on each entry the entire log should be disallowed, but how 
will the contest sponsors determine this?

I had 2. One of them is a frequent participant high scoring rtty contester.
I asked 4 times for RST before he finally figured it out. I suspect he
might of had a guest operator. When I came across him later on he was still
not giving RST. The second one ignored me and startred calling CQ again.
Must of ticked him off :-).
