Yes ofcourse, I do ask myself the same, however when
you have a HUGE pileup and rate is 200/hour I can´t
think too much on anything else but trying to get
call signs, atleast during Saturday we had HUGE pile
ups all the time, Sunday was a bit more relaxed (hi).

Hi Jim,
If I am getting a lot of dupe calls I ask myself:
Is there a bum spot out on me on the cluster?
Am I unintelligible....crap signal, sending too fast?
Am I not signing often enough?
I worked CT9L, dunno if it was you ever as op when I did, and I cannot
answer any of the above questions!!
If I'm not rare, then when I'm duped by someone the first question I ask
myself is "Did he think he was working somebody else? Was the timing
just a little off, or the frequency, or can I hear someone he might have
worked instead of me." Sometimes, admittedly, I don't ask that when the
first guy dupes me, but if I suddenly get a flurry, especially on the
high bands...
