Doesn't solve the problem for Unassisted stations having "friends" (real
or otherwise) spotting them.

Unassisted = NOT Cluster = No Spots = No Selfspots
Assisted = Allow self spotting

Betreff: Re: [CQ-Contest] Allowing self-spotting
Sirs,
I have difficulties following this discussion.
There are people selling the idea to allow self-spotting.
Which way are we going:
-allowing CQ calling on internet
-keeping the un-assisted category
.. or are we developing extreme double.standard or what is going on?
A glimpse into the Pandora's box we are now cranking open:
Is a station using CQoIP but claims not using spotting data, is such entrant
un-assisted?

I also like this self spotting.
BUT..... and there always is a BUT isn't there? I like the three
QSO's rule, BUT. there needs to also be a max per hour?
Then gain here we are, back to the same problem, UG!
I can just see someone spotting themself after every q.

There should be a rule allowing the software to automatically submit
a self spot after you have logged perhaps three QSOs on the same
frequency - same rule for everyone. After all, when you call CQ on CW
you are, in effect, self spotting. There is a huge advantage in being
spotted and, on SSB, there is a huge difference in the number of
spots for different stations giving advantage to those who are
spotted frequently and quickly after a frequency change. 73... Stan,

On CW, we already have the equivalent of self spotting, thanks to CW
Skimmer and the RBN. It's virtually impossible to NOT be spotted. CW
Skimmer/RBN is the great equalizer - you no longer have to depend on
a network of friends to spot you.
We wouldn't be having this discussion if there was a SSB Skimmer.
Right now, we have a system where "those with the right friends"
have an advantage. Why not simply allow self spotting on SSB ?

Having myself met with unfair and unjustified treatment at the

3V8SS it seems acknowledges cheer-leading by his fellow Tunisians
KG5OUE and F4HJD but claims not to have encouraged it. I am
inclined to believe him, given some of my own friends have spotted
me during contests and I have NEVER, that is NOT EVER, asked anyone
to do so.
That said, HB9EOU appears to be rather more than a random contact
with Switzerland. Last year HB9EOU operated in the IOTA contest
from 3V8SM on Djerba Island AF-083 along with F4HJD. Ash (3V8SS) +
F4HJD + 3V8CB had activated 3V8SM from Djerba Island a couple of
months earlier.
The recording of the contact with HB9EOU seems odd, though the
events not entirely inexplicable but small circles in which the
same calls crop up repetitively raise questions. Perhaps it's all
an extraordinary coincidence but there is enough doubt for me to
wonder whether my empathy might have been misplaced.

After reading your post and based on your response to the
committee, I would conclude that Bob, W5OV; Doug, KR2Q; Scott, W4PA
are nitpickers with an agenda.
If anything valid is further introduced to support the committee's
decision, then I would revise my opinion. As it stands, I believe
you were unfairly DQd.

Mike, Ria and all,
I put online the CC accusations (their native emails) and my responses:

I think that allows everyone to read from both sides. Now it's up
to you to comment!
