Thanks to all for your comments. Specially like those of Bill AA4LR and Jim
AD1C. I shall continue to spot all my S&P QSOs. N1MM software in
conjunction with the packet cluster software does such a good job of sorting
out multiple spots for the same station within a certain time frame.
I do believe that this is a sport and one is meant to have fun. I can't
take it too seriously from this peanut whistle station and just can't see
any advantage of not posting spots and since I use the spots I believe
turnabout is fairplay.
