Topband: over confident

[Wayne]

..that is, always make sure the op has your call correct _before you
send a signal report._ Always! 
(If you're worried that is technically illegal, sign your call at 40
wpm well after the QSO.)

 Worked EP6T last night, well sort of,...errr.. thought I did. He came
right back after I gave my call once on a new transmit frequency..
 I heard loud static crash, dah, qrm, 1FZ . I went back with a contest
type 5NN TU. He came back with a TU.
 and into my log book.

 Then I got a email from a, near by qth, DX friend.. Said "think he
had your call as N1FZ". It was past signal peak by the time I read the
email. The next day (Friday) found I was not in the EP6T online log
book, and N1FZ was.

 I should have given my call before and after giving him his
report,.... Will I try again, you can bet your bippy I will.
