Yeah, Rick, they often will do that. (I was offered an after-the-fact log
fix when XR0ZR copied and apparently repeated my call as WA9EK -- an error I
missed while on the air. But I knew I would never be able to look at that XR0
QSL as legit, so I said Thanks; no, and chalked it up to experience.)
Maybe I'm just being old-fashioned and stupid, but I always believed that a
busted call exchange equals a busted Q. This is ham RADIO, and completing a
Q via the internet just doesn't seem right to me.
My $0.02,

Don't worry, after the DXpedition, you can get them for fix the log
for the busted call. It is advisable to check with the real N1FZ to
make sure he wasn't involved. I often get into pileups with N6RO
or some other similar sounding call and then it isn't so clear about
the busted call thing if he works one of us.
