Well I had dumb luck. On ClubLog I showed that I worked them on 15 Meter
RTTY. But I have no log entry for it. I did call them on 15 RTTY several
times, but the pileup and QRM made me not hear the reply.
I do have them E30 on rtty from pervious DX-Peditions so not the end of the
world.
Maybe I will have to send a paper QSL card to the manger and explain what
happened. Since I am in their log, maybe he will confirm it.

BTW the Missouri QSO Party on April 4 and 5 will now allow digital qso's.
