David, it is all crystal clear in the new rules and explanations. No, 
according to the new rules you may not change your log based on your own 
recordings. See below.
73 de Roger/G3SXW.

Rule III.13 – “After the contest period, don’t correct call signs.”

When the contest period ends, do not use any sort of database, local or 
remote, to review and then modify the callsigns in your log prior to 
submission.

Use of QRZ.com, DX Cluster, RBN files, other call sign databases, friends’ 
or club logs, etc., are considered to be other data sources and are not 
allowed for post-contest call correction.

Having friends or experts who were not “the entrant” review the log also 
“counts” as a database (not permitted).

A recording of your own contest effort, whether digital or analog, is 
considered to be a database, even if you made the recording yourself.

Roger, not trying to be difficult, just certain - does that include a 
recording that you have made yourself and are just checking?
