I send a generic reply that if they feel the band is open to Alaska at any given time, they e-mail me AT THAT TIME, and if I am available I will try and connect. With modern e-mail and texting, skeds are a thing of the past.

Dave,

That is exactly what I do. Send a note back saying the QSO was with that call. If they want a QSL using their own call, they should have stopped and worked you with that call (as several have done to me). Just as you would not QSL a contact with whom you did not exchange a report, neither would you do so with a station call you did not work.

Cheers

Frankly. I wish his feature had more options. While I do not mind sending a pre-written text to those who request a sked with Alaska (explaining why skeds under current propagation conditions are impossible), it would be nice if there was a way to send them that message immediately when they click on my call. Also, my "travel" accounts such as AL7GA/W0 in North Dakota present the same issue since I am only there a week or so every year. I eve still receive requests for skeds via my old North Dakota call WD0CQA, though I left there in 1984 and my account setup has that as a close date. But I will continue the courtesy of pasting my text into the reply box for each request so they understand the situation.
