I always confirm the call I worked, if i need to correct it. That's the
correct way... besides if I don't many will dupe me to make sure I have the
call correct...
So, lately I've been only answering with ? until I got a complete call to
avoid this
lu5cw test
?$#%25BX
?
3249023-4w203bx
?
w6bx
w6bx 599kw
599ca
tu de lu5cw
I think it saves a lot of time... (sri to w6bx if he's reading ;-)
