Well said Gary, Many forget that they are always listening/looking on their TX frequency besides the rest in the 3KHz or so RX passband.

Just because you do not see/hear a signal at a certain pan point does not mean you are not receiving there.

If you were not receiving there, then you would not hear the signal there when it arrives, like waiting for a radio station broadcast, while quiet static sounds,

or the the guy waiting for a wave that is still 'surfing' My speaker is off in FT8, I never listen to it.

Probably not related to your problem at all, but why would you change frequency 
to match theirs? That is not preferred procedure and hasn’t been since a few 
years ago.  Find a clear frequency, put your transmitter there (left click on 
waterfall) and call your station.  Lock your transmitter frequency (Hold TX 
Freq check-box)  You don’t need to move, and neither does he.
