Actually, you make a very good suggestion, John.
I think it was a year ago in a DX contest where some new N1MM users were
inadvertently posting their own frequency (instead of the station callsign
they just worked S&Ping), because some config settings were whacked
out. It was very frustrating to see alleged new bandmap entries show up
only to find it was not the DX station there, but the W/K station.
A simple config setting in WL like "Prohibit ANY Packet Posts With User's
Callsign & Frequency"...or several options (set by default upon installing
WL to eliminate potential problems).
Tnx & 73...
