You are still going to claim that Brian "lost" his logs, aren't you?

As long as he keeps refusing to post some sort of "evidence" for the
claims he made, yes.

Why?

He may know just where they are.

They may have been in a garage at one time and in a storage unit another.

You don't really know either way, do you? Tsk, tsk.

It's not what I know or don't know, Your Putziness....It's what
PuppetBoy can produce to substantiate his claims.

Can produce or will produce?

Regardless of wether they are in his garage, a rental storage unit, his
bathroom reading rack, or his imagination, they are NOT "here"...THAT is
fact.

So what's the problem?

Anyone who reads these exchanges knows that Mr. Burke will simply avoid/refuse
any sort of substantive answer on the subject. That's pretty much a given.

So why bother about it?

Brain knows that even if he produces some log with callsigns in it, it
becomes a simple matter to contact the various persons to ascertain if they
really DID work T5/N0IMD.

Maybe.

Or maybe those people will have moved, changed callsigns, passed away, etc.

I am now sure that Jim was right. I am sure that Brain HAS a T5/N0IMD
"logbook" somewhere.

IIRC, the exact calim was "logs", not "logbooks". Could be some pieces of wood.

It's just that it's empty.

Or maybe there's one entry. Or two. Or three.

Remember there were no claims as to number of QSOs, band, mode, rig, etc. One
local VHF/UHF QSO would count as "operation" wouldn't it?

*if* that were the case - wouldn't it make all of the claims true?

And why get all upset about it? Nobody is claiming they worked T5/N0IMD. Nobody
is complaining they didn't get a QSL card from the alleged operation.
