I'd appreciate some advice from the veteran contesters in this group.
I'm a long time ham but a novice contester. I worked 421 Q's on last weekend's
CQ WW CW contest. I know I'm definitely a "little pistol" with severe antenna
restrictions.
Here's my question. While operating S&P sometimes running stations would answer
with an error in my call. I'd always send my call back twice, often at five or
more WPM slower, and usually the running station would acknowledge the error by
sending back my call correctly. I'm all set when that happens and log the
contact. BUT, sometimes the running station would not acknowledge the
correction or even send it back incorrectly again, and then go right to running
the next station. What is the conventional wisdom? To go ahead and log the
contact on my side even if I still suspect he has my call wrong in his log, not
log the call, or do something else?
Thanks a lot for your advice and I look forward to learning much from this
group and the SEDXC.
73,
Mack de WB4MAK
