Hi All
I believe that if you set up your bands prior to the contest, you won't see
any spots outside what you set. Still is a problem on bands like 40 but at
least it cuts down on a lot of non needed spots.

I didn't make that mistake but I caught myself just in the nick of
time on one occasion (was it 15 meters?). Then I sat there and
chuckled while I heard two or three others get snookered. Yes,
some kind of warning about such things is needed.
