Andy: Here's the correct exchange with a few notes to clarify...
Message Sent Sent by Meaning CQ K3UK FN02 K3UK CQ de K3UK in Grid FN02 K3UK KT2Q FN30 KT2Q K3UK de KT2Q in Grid FN30 KT2Q K3UK FN02 000 K3UK KT2Q de K3UK in FN02 your report is "O" RO KT2Q Roger, received my report and your report is "O" RRR K3UK Roger 73 KT2Q 73 It's realy not much different than any other QSO exchange; the minimum requirement for a "legitimate" QSO would be callsigns and reports given both ways! If any WSJT messages are skipped, other than the optional "73" then information will be missing from one party or the other. Hope this helps...
