I've done some contesting from the Bahamas as C6AUM, and often I have been
the only C6A multiplier available on the band.  I frequently have dupes
call when I'm running.  I assume they are looking for an insurance contact
in the fear that they may not be in the log after our first QSO.  In fact,
I've had a several instances where I've worked the same station three times
on a band during a contest!  While it's easier (and the better practice) to
go ahead and work them again (and again), it can get frustrating, but I
guess it goes with the territory.
