Understand what you mean. Confusion is my problem too; it probably bothers
me even more than you at the moment.

I guess in 1.4.5.b it is not necessary either to declare startpoint and
finishpoint, but it may be done (not sure though).
Turnpoints must be declared. Lets say they appear on the declaration sheet
(or in the logger) as A, B and C and in that order.
After take off a pilot decides to go for a task St - C - A - Fin because he
finds promising weather conditions while "en route". He uses declared turn
points in a certain "sequence or not at all" and this is exactly what
1.4.5.b. allows.
Now what about "This course must be decared" ? as the rule states as its
last "informational remark".
Is that post declared or what. I can't see how a course can be
(pre-)declared before the flight when turnpoints may be visited "in any
sequence or not at all".
In my example of three declared turnpoints one can have 22 courses when "in
any sequence or not at all" applies.

Snip ..
The start and finish are not "post-declared" but are the release
and
landing.

Hello Eric,

Do you understand "This course must be declared" in 1.4.5.b. where it
also says "The TURN POINTS may be claimed once, in any sequence, or
not at all.

You snipped too much of my posting. Here it is more of it:

1 - How does one electronically declare a task with post declared
start and finish (such as 1000km diploma where the start and finish
do not need to be declared


No action is required for courses that do not need a declaration. The
start and finish are not "post-declared" but are the release and
landing.

1.4.5.b refers to courses with turnpoints, which must be declared. I was
referring to 1.4.5.a when I said "courses that do not need a
declaration". I should have referenced 1.4.5.a to eliminate any
confusion, especially since there is only one course (straight distance)
that doesn't have to be declared for badges. Several undeclared courses
are available for records, which is where my confusion came from.
