No I didn't get him :-(   I heard him clearly work N6ZFO.

Now you have a dilemma  . . . . . .

The VP8SGI log says that you did work them!

But you did not have a 2-way communication [I can verify that because I
heard the whole thing]   or did you??

Another contact will be a dupe from their perspective, and they could, I
guess, ignore your call, thinking you are a DX'ing lid.

Good luck!
