Yes but what I can't understand is that if the previous but possibly
incorrect qso has the points attached, it is incorrect.
One of the two qsos did not take place.
Assuming the other op is correct and it's not in his log.
So how can points be awarded to the first, incorrect qso?
The second qso, the dupe, is actually the legal qso and should be awarded
the points.
I see your point that the score will work out the same but I would be afraid
that the sponsors log checking software would find the discrepancy resulting
in penalties.

It just seems untidy to me.
Thanks for your time
