Topband: LY7Z in The Stew Perry TopBand DX Challenge

[Tom Frenaye]

I think you're all going off the deep end.    The exchange is no secret for any station, it's based on their QTH.   Note that my exchange in the ARRL DX contest is my state - and is located at the end of every message I send.   While grid squares are not as easy to look up, I would suggest that they are not worth complaining about on here.   Talking about disqualification is nonsense.  Just get on the air, enjoy the contest, copy the exchange.
