As the original author noted in an apology note to KH6ND, some
announces were someone announcing someone else to use it to ask for
a section. Your's is one of those:
14068.1 K0RF 8-Nov-1998 2342Z PLEEZE SPOT NNY FOR
SWEEP <W4FOA>
W4FOA announcing K0RF and asking for NNY. No packet use implied
for K0RF.

Disclaimer: Didn't have packet on in my part time SS SOLP effort. Use
it for fun in low effort DX contests, and have no opinion on this whole
thread/idea at this time.
