On the other hand, if you did get his RR73, you can consider the QSO completed, and respond in whatever way you want. At least, that's the view I've come to after using the FT* modes since they were invented. Was it "really" a QSO? I'll let LoTW or the contest logcheck software sort it out. A special case is when I see a station I've worked sending RR73 again. That shows they're probably expecting a 73 from me and didn't get it. So in that case I'll send 73 (Tx5, which is totally customizable, there's even a TX Macros page in Settings that lets you create a whole library of them). But that almost never happens anymore. 73, Paul K6PO > > Gary - AG0N > > _______________________________________________ > wsjt-devel mailing list > wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/wsjt-devel >
