[CQ-Contest] CQ-Contest Digest, Vol 254, Issue 6 (Ack issue)

[Jack Brindle]

It is easier than that. The CQ station sends their exchange first, giving the calling station a chance to request fills if needed. So we know the calling station will get the exchange. The problem then is that the CQ station may not get the calling station’s exchange. If that happens, there is no QSO and thus nothing to log. The calling station will get a NIL for the Q he logged. 

A double Q removal for NIL should be plenty of incentive, and we have that already.
