There must be some misunderstanding.
DXpeditions and contesters do not expect to hear their own callsign.
Normal CW contest QSO is:
CQ DX1DX
ME1ME (calling him WITHOUT giving his call)
ME1ME 599 (he has to give my call so I know I am accepted)
599 TU
N1XT 599 next QSO starts with implicit R OK for my QSO
If this is not valid QSO, then 99% of contest CW/SSB QSOs are not valid,
and probably 70% of DXCC challenge QSOs.
Even on normal long QSOs I usually call without giving his call:
CQ CQ CQ HE1HE HE1HE HE1HE + K
ME1ME ME1ME
ME1ME DE HE1HE = TNX FR CALL DR OC etc ....
All these are valid QSOs, as well us all three FT4 QSOs below. Same story, same
rules.

W1AW W0YK RR73 Tx4
W0YK K6PO R DM12 Tx3
K6PO W0YK RR73 Tx4
3. Tailending a QSO. K6PO has not yet copied W0YK?s grid. Then:
W1AW W0YK RR73 Tx4
W0YK K6PO DM12 Tx2
K6PO W0YK R DM97 Tx3
W0YK K6PO RR73
These are NOT contacts!Contact rules specifically state that you must
copy your call sign from your QSO partner before sending a
report.Regardless of the fact that some misguided contest rules may
allow ?contacts? in that form, those contacts would not be good for
other awards (DXCC, VUCC, etc).
