Interesting question...
As I understand it, you don't actually know if that specific DL was the
operator.
But what if during QSO he mentions that his home callsign is DL1XXX. Will
that change anything or is DL1XXX still NIL?
Scenario 1:
M5AAV de DR2006XXX you are 59, operator is DL1XXX
DR2006XXX de M5AAV you are 59
You receive 2 cards
Scanario 2:
M5AAV de DR2006XXX you are 59
DR2006XXX de M5AAV you are 59
split second later
M5AAV this is DL1XXX you are 59
DL1XXX de M5AAV you are 59
You receive 2 cards
The difference between 2 scenarios is that you exchanged reports 2 times
instead of one, but effectively you had "second" QSO with the same station,
setup and operator wise. Will you QSL to DL1XXX in scenario 1, will you
refuse to work DL1XXX in scenario 2?
Another example (kind of the other way around). I am on the air as ZL1AA
(club station) and during QSO with DL1XXX I mention that my home call is
ZL1TM. Both ZL1AA and ZL1TM receive cards. Should ZL1TM reply?
Regards &73!
