[VHFcontesting] Questions on making a valid contest QSO.

[Mike Metroka]

Hi Ron,
   During VHF/UHF contests I give both call signs and my grid along with a
QSL for each contact even when running the bands with another station.

Just a short answer will be fine, not to take up much bandwidth here.

I am curious how many operators actually give both call signs in a contest
QSO 100% of the time?

Do you think giving both calls is necessary when calling CQ on the same
frequency for some lengthy period?

What does the contest rules state that constitutes a legal contest exchange?
