Well, the real answer is that it probably should not be an aftetr the fact
'ascertainment'. Your log should be submitted as worked.  The logging
program should only score one qso with another station, it can log as many
as you make.  Once you score a station only once, even with say 3 entries,
your job is done, As I understand, the Cabrillo file and log checking take
care of the rest. If you change it, or worry about, you may accidentally
credit yourself for two qso's with a station, and that will cost you.

Look at it this way...if the other station is a dupe...you had to have him
right the first time.  He may not be using Wriitelog (or whatever) and may
even be on paper, either way YOU have him as a dupe.  You have him in your
log, he may or may not have you, that will cost him in 99.99999999999% of
the cases. What will hurt you more than anything is trying to outguess the
system.

Thanks for the comments, I think.
But it still doesn't answer my question. Which qso gets the points?

Fine to leave it up to the log checkers but I'd like to know before I submit
a score that it's as correct as I can ascertain.
