Hi Andy.

Not sure if your are asking me, and I'm not sure that I understood your 
questions right, but if I did, then:

1) If you are talking about my case, that was 43 minutes of operation. And I 
am pretty sure I used to I.D. quite a few times in that period of time. :-)
As a matter of fact, I now have an SDR recording of this particular Contest 
which proves the I personally ID'ed at least once every 4-5 contacts;
2) You don't necessarily need to cheat to learn that you were spotted 
wrongly - all you need to do is check the spots after the Contest ends 
(which actually a lot of people do). Also, during the contest, if all of a 
sudden a lot of "dupes" start to call you, no need to be a rocket scientist 
to figure out what's happening;
3) Your "not liking" the DX station not ID-ing every QSO is nothing more 
than a well-known allegory of "a driver and a pedestrian"... As soon as you 
become a DX yourself, you start acting exactly the same way. That's 
(fortunately or unfortunately) how the real life works.
