Why do stations still give the 'qso b4' message when someone calls?

I called a certain ZL and was rewarded with a 'qso b4' reply. That station, or none with anything like their callsign, was in my log. If I had a ZL something or other that was close, I'd think maybe I busted the call, but no such callsign in my log.

If more experienced contesters call you and it is a dupe, something probably was not logged correctly on your end or theirs. It takes about 20 seconds to just work the dupe and move on.

Now this ZL is going to get a nil from W7WHY.  73
