I hear what your saying Bill. I look at it slightly different. You did work them, so your 'worked' total should show them. Obviously your 'credited' total never will. This gives you something to really concentrate on. Goals are good. LOL
I've been going through my qsls lately and finding qsls I never asked for. Just to mark them as received. Some our real oldies....Last year I got a Canal Zone card I'd never asked for till then. Don't count any more...but actually, it does.... LOL LOL Now absolute pirates... those I leave in my log, but don't give them credit. Just because the old FCC regs of recording all transmissions is ingrained in my head. Old rules die hard. But ones that were incountry, just never paid off the right person.....slighly different. Of course I go after a new and hopefully 'creditable' qso when I can.
