Ron, that is usually much more complicated. I only set this example for the
sake of simplicity. It could be the software problem or something else
beyond my control but I always thought this is two way road. Suppose I sent
your call sign wrong and you confirmed it? It is also your responsibility to
make sure I got everything correct in the log.

Sounds not clever to me. This is not constructive approach.
1. I might have been double mult for you.
2. I might do the same to you next contest.
3. You give me and others an incentive not to discuss things like that here
on the reflector.
