This scoring is pretty rare -- I know that some Russian contests use it. In MOST contests, he would lose the Q for busting your call, but YOU would get full credit because your Q would show up in his log with his bust of your call.

I agree with others that it is my responsibility to try to correct the other station if he has busted my call. I do this by sending it at least twice before sending my exchange. If he doesn't get it by then, it's his fault, not mine. :) Unless I'm running QRP, in which case I won't send him my exchange until he's sent my call correctly.

repeats my call back incorrectly several times, then he gives me a QSL
without repeating my call., and moves on. Sure enough -- I am not in his
log at all, I got a penalty because I logged the  QSO based on what the
other station sent. --Mike, WV2ZOW
