Thanks, Milan. While some have pointed out they remove the QSO from
the log, I generally don't log Q's that I'm not positive about. On rare
occasions I do, and I make notes in the "Notes for this QSO..." to the
effect of not getting a confirmation on my call, or whatever the case
might be - that case I would delete the QSO, but generally I don't QSL
those. Thank you for detailing an unintended consequence on the Invalid
DX flag. I thought it only affected that one QSO, not that it would
"blackball" the callsign in a general way for spots, etc.
73, Duane
