operating W8BI on 20 meters CW, many YO stations called in. (I was calling CQ
OQP, so they called W8BI, I did not call them.) After I sent my report, the YO
stations would send 2 letters, which is the correct report for the YO DX HF
Contest but N1MM logger rejected each QSO because it was not the required OQP
serial number exchange format. After asking each YO to send a serial number,
and after each one refused to cooperate, I sent NIL and 73 and ended up not
logging any YO stations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>After
awhile I acted as if I couldn’t hear any YO stations calling because it was too
frustrating to be unable to log the QSO. I can only hope that my failure to log
the YO’s is not a poor reflection on W8BI, but I didn’t have an alternate plan
at the time. <o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>
