Re: Packet - what do you consider a "logable" contact?

I only log #5.? If I used an intermediary station, I add that to the notes so I know what path I used to get the log entry.

Good Evening Net105'rs!

(Before I ask this question I want to clarify I am in the US so logging is not required by the FCC - just in case this is see in other countries.)

In your opinion what do you consider a contact that can be logged in packet modes?

examples:
1) A new user logs into a packet BBS via RF
2) A packet user leaves you a message on your BBS and you reply
3) You successfully connect to another packet station and leave a message
4) You read a message someone left for you on another station and reply to it
5) You have a keyboard to keyboard chat with another operator via HF
6) You hear another stations beacon

In my opinion:
2-5 should be a logged contact
6 - nah, I can't see that as logged
1 - I sort of think this is a valid contact, they did connect via RF and used the BBS to setup an account.

What are your thoughts?
