Fw: [CQ-Contest] Operator error

[Rex Maner]

Hello  Art   and the Contest Gang

This can and does happen with other logging programs also you don't have to
be using a hand key to have it happen if you log the contact and somone
wants a repeat of the number and  the op is in a hurry the  NUMBER  for the
NEXT Q is sent by punching the  F2 button.  I've done it and sometimes I
catch it and sometimes the other OP is gone before I remember it  or catch
the mistake myself.

NO QUESTION  it is Operator error and unfortunately its the Other guy who
gets DINGED.

Quack

I used computer logging (CT) for the first time at home in SS CW.  Because
I'm still learning, I sent all fills with the paddles.  I'm pretty sure that
a couple of times, when asked "NR?", I wrongly sent the number at the bottom
of the page -- the number for the next QSO.  Should I worry about protecting
the other guy(s) from getting dinged for having the "wrong" number in their
logs?  If yes, how would I do it?  I realized my error too late even to note
which QSOs it might have been.
