Exactly.
Your error. Your penalty. No foul against WA0XYZ.

The Radiosport appears to be the only competition where some participants want
"overs". The last time I recall this happening was on the grade school
playground.
Let's see... in hockey, the puck hits the goal post... does the player get
"overs" after the game?
Let's see... in basketball, the ball dances on the rim and falls outside the
net... does the shooter get "overs" after the game?
Let's see... in bowling, the ball drops into the gutter, missing all pins...
does the bowler get "overs" after the game?
If you screw up a contact during the contest, that's the time to fix it. I've
heard plenty of operators ask someone to hold on a sec, I need your report
again, the computer just went nuts.
Someone suggested the contest is not a typing test. I agree. So if you can't
type that fast, slow down.
