Thanks to all who responded to my question.
I suspected that this would be the answer. I've found that often a station not
receiving the 73 from me in return, then sends 73 again sometimes until I
respond in kind with a 73. And I generally don't use RR73.
It's not a bug and by design.
Thanks and 73,Andy, ka2uqw

Hi Andy...Yes it happens all the time..BY DESIGN, apparently. I find it most
frustrating and bordering on rude. Technically the return 73 is not required
for a valid QSO, however it is the polite thing to do. At the very least if
confirms to your operating partner that all was received. I would like to at
least see it as an operator option.

Hello to the group,
I am using WSJTx, version 2.5, using the version for Ubuntu 20.04. When
operating FT8 and in contact with a station, once that station sends 73 my
transmit becomes disabled, so my station does not send 73 unless I manually
send it. I am using auto sequence. So, the question is, should my station
progress automatically to send 73? I have seen this happen a number of times,
but not sure if it is happening all the time. So, I just thought I would ask.
73, Andy, ka2uqw
