Excellent point.  When this happens to me, I decide based on signal
strength both ways.  If he is loud and clear and did not ask for a
repeat, I take it as acknowledged.  If it's been rough with several
repeats, I assume no contact and either call him again or give it up.

The "QRZ only" happens a lot in Sweepstakes, it seems.  Maybe because
it's US/Can only and sigs are good on the average.

Anyway, works for me.
