Tom:  The famous Amateur Golfer, Bobby Jones, was noted for his integrity. 
He once, famously, called a penalty on himself, because his ball moved 
before he hit it, even though no-one else saw it.

Of course, he did not have to disqualify himself.  Perhaps you could just 
take a 2 stroke--er, QSO-- penalty.

You are in good company!

73,
Rusty, na5tr
