Questionable practice..?

I have noticed elsewhere (not on this site) certain listeners posting "logs" hours after the alleged reception, usually stating that it was a "SDR catch". What this translates to is that the listener did not actually hear the station; their receiver did.

Of what value is a hours-late report - other than to note that somebody was on when nobody was listening?

And should an Operator verify such "reports"? I know that, if I was running a station, I would not QSL those SDR catches.

But that's just me. What do *you* think? I'd be interested in your thoughts...

America needs a sense of humor...
