" This thread is about "Contest confusion" " when a contester is sending only the required exchange of a Grid Square and his QSO partner is a non-contester using standard FT messages which include SNR. The non-contester may be confused if she doesn't receive an SNR from the contester. "
No, I think you have missed the point. The point of the OP was that if a contester replies to a CQ clearly from a non-contester then that person, if not confused, should use the exchange expected by the person who called CQ. The person calling CQ becomes frustrated and goes QRT because the confused contesters are not able to follow the established protocol for a standard non-contest QSO. If you don't want to follow standard QSO protocol then don't answer a CQ from a non-contest station. At least part of the problem is caused by WSJT-X itself because it auto-sequences to "RRR" in response to "R grid" even though that instance of the application is not selected to contest mode. If the received message is not "R report" WSJT-X should continue to send the report and not auto-sequence to RRR. Andy, k3wyc
