Yes Lance, 

and why the  "QSO"  between V51PJ - PY1MHZ  was declared as a 
new world-record (even until yesterday on ARRL web page, OK2KKW  and D4C ! ) ? 

HB9DUR writes on D4C page that even K1JT proved the "QSO" as a good one 
and suddenly he  us rowing backwards and says it was false alarm...

Whats wrong?

 Very simple, Wolfgang - a
 QSO is a QSO when both callsigns and signal reports are 
 exchanged and confirmed as being received by
 each station.  That is internationally 
 recognized standard EME contact procedure for
 over half a century, and also the 
 standard
 for all VHF and higher weak signal contacts.  Having one or
 both stations 
 imagine copying the other
 calling them (whether by ear or by computer) has NEVER been
 
 considered a complete two-way contact... 
 GL and VY 73, Lance
