It's not a waste of time....
Here's why (especially on weak signals or when the band is flaky or QRM).
.....start of QSO....W9MDB W0YK R-13W0YK W9MDB RR73 -- band goes flaky but I'm
supposed to think the QSO is done...but you don't decode the RR73.W9MDB W0YK
R-13 -- you repeat because you didn't get the RR73 but since our path is flaky
I don't get this R-13 so I still think I'm done.W9MDB W0YK R-13 -- you repeat
again -- I still don't receive youad nauseum until you give up.
I logged you because I sent RR73 and got no other message from you. You didn't
log me as you never received RR73.If had sent RRR instead I would repeat 73
until I got your 73.
That's why it says only use RR73 on a strong signal that you don't expect to
have any problems with.

RR73 completes the QSO. Both QSO partners have sent calls, exchanges and

I don't know what F/H is, but i have seen wsjtx hang and not complete the qso
after RR73.

WSJT-X ver 2.6.1, Win 8.1.
I have observed several times that I could not complete a QSO by sending 73
after I had received an RR73. This is expected operation with F/H active but
not when F/H is not active. I suspect that something is latched in software if
F/H mode has been used but is then exited and WSJT-X is not re-started.
Has anyone else seen this or have an explanation?
