Hi Gery,
You bet it's ok, just get on and have fun!
I've been a contester for 35 years now, and I just get on and have fun, too!
I've hardly ever sent in a log, only a couple times!
When they say qsl?" The station is asking you if you got their info.
So, get on and have fun, pal!
So, what call are ya using? Probably your own, but I can't remember it!
I'll be using k8arc.
73,
Trippy, ac8s
