Certainly, the safe thing to do is to work the dupe, especially in a contest
with a short exchange, and log it for zero points. Then, of course,
don't delete it from your log. For any one of a number of reasons, your
first contact with that station may be invalid. Except perhaps in
SS, it takes longer to ask if he's sure you haven't worked than it
does to just work him again. It doesn't hurt a thing to have a zero
point dupe in your log.
Did anyone else notice in CQWW CW how few JA's tried to make duplicate
contacts? Maybe they all have computers. Or they're just very
careful.
