Yeah butt...

He was running "assisted"... using the cluster, a database, or worked you on another band. He already knew your information and he didn't need to waste time listening for it again. :-)

But then, he DID have time to waste by sending you QSO B4 several times later.

Go figure!

Jukka,

That doesn't always work. In a recent contest, a running station confirmed my exchange. However, I hadn't sent an exchange yet. He then went on to work another station. Since I hadn't sent my exchange, we didn't have a valid QSO. I called him back and got B4. I tried calling him later and got B4. Since we didn't have a good QSO, he didn't get in my log.

How come so many suggest stopping there, removing the QSO and then tuning
for the next frequency?


I was expecting someone or anyone suggesting calling again the station that
is on thr frequency and is not in your log.
Why go and try to find a next frequency as you already are on a frequency
of a station that you do not have in your log?

Finalise the QSO ..

That will yield you more QSOs at the end of the contest.
It also produces a bigger score.
