[RTTY] Dupes now sorted what about busted serial's

But has a valid contest QSO then taken place?

If I don't copy the other guy's exchange then it seems to me the QSO is not complete.  Partial QSOs don't count.  I realize I can't control the actions of the other station, i.e., I ask for a fill but he's already moved on.  But I'd rather hope I can find the other guy later in the contest and try again.  (And then we can argue about the dupe!)

Unfortunately, such scenarios occur and occasionally good QSOs from one perspective are not good from the other.  It happens to everyone at one time or another.
