Mark--
Its "nice" that you don't want to penalize the other guy by
throwing out the QSO but I agree with George -- you toss
the QSO. It does penalize the other guy--AND RIGHTFULLY SO.
To elaborate on George's answer:
He didn't wait around to get confirmation of a good QSO--so
HE is the one that blew the QSO by tuning away before
it was completed. Your log is clean--you didn't complete
the QSO and it is not in your log. His log is not clean--he
didn't make the complete 2-way QSO and still he kept it in the
log. He should be penalized if he didn't remove the QSO.
And your conscience is clear! ;-)
