[VHFcontesting] Does a Q with the ISS count in the VHF Sprint? :-)

[Alex]

Hello again,

I should have put a smiley behind the question as it was not a serious
question. My apologies. 

The contact took place an hour and a half before the sprint, so I couldn't
have counted it anyway. 

I was going to work the sprint a bit from the car, but a friend alerted me
of the ISS pass and plans changed.

I'm sorry for the confusion.

73,
