In CQP (non-CA) the dupe checking is not invoked until you try to enter the QSO.
CT cheerfully gives the "XXXX needed call" banner and the "check call" window
doesn't give you a hint.  I expect this behaviour stems from the fact that a CA
station might move to another county from your previous QSO, thus it's
'workable' in the new county.

Perhaps the program could at least alert you with a 'possible dupe' banner so
S&P guys can listen to the ongoing exchange before dropping their call into the
fray?
