[CQ-Contest] Broken calls

[Yuri]

Igor, maybe you can share with us your technique to make sure that the other party has copied (and logged!) you call correctly?
It's something like asking after QSO - "Did you copy and LOG my call as UA9CDC?" :-)
Honestly, never heard anything like that from W2SC, N2NT, N6MJ, KL9A and other guys who are usually top scorers...

And talking about myself - believe me - I never send my call as "BY2T" or even "6Y5T". And I never even do a 40 WPM. 
38 at most. :-)

Yuri

P.S. BTW it was RDXC UBN report that encouraged me to change my call from VA3UZ to VE3DZ back in 2002...

Exactly.

Two way QSO only counts when both sides log call signs and exchange correctly. This philosophy has been implemented in most of contests in Russia. Otherwise when I hear that my corresponded got my call as UA9CBC instead of CDC there is no incentive to spend time correcting him. I will get my points anyway. The same is true about whatever exchange there is in a contest.
