Narrative:
I was entering the traffic pattern at my home airport and another aircraft asked if I ever saw him. I apologized and stated that I had not. He reported it as a near miss to the FSDO. I was entering the pattern from the side opposite the downwind as I was trained and as many other pilots I have polled do. Cross midfield at 500 above pattern altitude to enter the downwind.
