>From the WSJT-X User guide:
Section 7.1 : Standard messages -" The RR73 message should be used only if you
are reasonably confident that no repetitions will be required."
Section 7.4 : Contest messages -"Always log a QSO when you have received RRR,
RR73, or 73 from a station you are working."
"Log a QSO when you send RR73 or 73 if you are reasonably confident it will be
copied. But be sure to watch for any indication that it was not copied, and
then take appropriate action. For example, if you receive the Tx3 message (R
plus contest exchange) again, and if you have activated the Alternate F1-F6
bindings, hit F4 to re-send your RR73."

Here's why (especially on weak signals or when the band is flaky or QRM).
.....start of QSO....W9MDB W0YK R-13W0YK W9MDB RR73 -- band goes flaky but I'm
supposed to think the QSO is done...but you don't decode the RR73.W9MDB W0YK
R-13 -- you repeat because you didn't get the RR73 but since our path is flaky
I don't get this R-13 so I still think I'm done.W9MDB W0YK R-13 -- you repeat
again -- I still don't receive youad nauseum until you give up.
I logged you because I sent RR73 and got no other message from you. You didn't
log me as you never received RR73.If had sent RRR instead I would repeat 73
until I got your 73.
That's why it says only use RR73 on a strong signal that you don't expect to
have any problems with.

RR73 completes the QSO. Both QSO partners have sent calls, exchanges and
QSLs. Am additional 73 message is a waste of time.

I don't know what F/H is, but i have seen wsjtx hang and not complete the qso
after RR73.

[wsjt-devel] No 73 allowed after RR73?
WSJT-X ver 2.6.1, Win 8.1.
I have observed several times that I could not complete a QSO by sending 73
after I had received an RR73. This is expected operation with F/H active but
not when F/H is not active. I suspect that something is latched in software if
F/H mode has been used but is then exited and WSJT-X is not re-started.
Has anyone else seen this or have an explanation?
