As Jim stated, (also great points by others)
and I also try to be a part of the solution when I am working Assisted
when I see an obvious bad call on the band map I take an extra moment or
two during my S&P
and listen carefully for the correct call and make a new spot of it
as DX the ops should note a sudden increase of dupes and that extra time to
phonetically announce their callsign
Slow down to work faster
cheers!
