I had a local big gun (now SK) call me once and ask me to telephone
him. I did and he reported to me that *I* had worked TYA11 on such
and such a freq and time.

I told him in no uncertain terms that *I* hadn't worked the guy and
wouldn't be sending a QSL, and that in the future, I would do my own
DXing.

But I heard of another guy, recently divorced and QRT, who *worked*
them the same way and maintained his "honor roll" status.

Wes, N7WS, who found and worked the VU4 with my own station, all by
myself.
