I'd appreciate some advice from the veteran contesters in 
this group. 
 
I'm a long time ham but a novice contester. I worked 421 
Q's on last weekend's CQ WW CW contest. I know I'm definitely a "little pistol" 
with  severe antenna restrictions. 
 
Here's my question. While operating S&P 
sometimes running stations would answer with an error in my call. I'd 
always send my call back twice, often at five or more WPM slower, and 
usually the running station would acknowledge the error by sending back my call 
correctly. I'm all set when that happens and log the contact. BUT, sometimes the 
running station would not acknowledge the correction or even send it back 
incorrectly again, and then go right to running the next station. What is the 
conventional wisdom? To go ahead and log the contact on my side even if I still 
suspect he has my call wrong in his log, not log the call, or do something 
else?
 
Thanks a lot for your advice and I look forward to 
learning much from this group and the SEDXC.
