Hello Art and the Contest Gang
This can and does happen with other logging programs also you don't have to
be using a hand key to have it happen if you log the contact and somone
wants a repeat of the number and the op is in a hurry the NUMBER for the
NEXT Q is sent by punching the F2 button. I've done it and sometimes I
catch it and sometimes the other OP is gone before I remember it or catch
the mistake myself.
NO QUESTION it is Operator error and unfortunately its the Other guy who
gets DINGED.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Operator error
I used computer logging (CT) for the first time at home in SS CW. Because
I'm still learning, I sent all fills with the paddles. I'm pretty sure that
a couple of times, when asked "NR?", I wrongly sent the number at the bottom
of the page -- the number for the next QSO. Should I worry about protecting
the other guy(s) from getting dinged for having the "wrong" number in their
logs? If yes, how would I do it? I realized my error too late even to note
which QSOs it might have been.
