Nothing "politically correct" about it, Felipe.

The "unstable" refers to the fact that log robot found information in the 
exchange from a particular station was not consistent throughout the contest.

For example, if I send a check of "99" a thousand times in the course of the 
contest, and in 10 logs they find something else, those 10 logs take a hit.

But if the robot finds many many deviations from "99", then it considers that 
element "unstable" in my QSO's, and does not deduct from other logs for that 
element.

  Hans,

  Thanks for the politically correct explanation.. I guess you mean a "Loco 
operator"?

  IM sure Ill be joining that list on sunday after not sleeping for a few 
days.. It 
  is a toughtful solution for a known problem of operators hearing voices and 
other allucinations..

  Last time I had one, I was dreaming of walking on the boom of the 2 el 40 
yagi up 140 ft., was sending Cw with the paddle instead of the keyboard and God 
knows what I was sending..

  Suddenly after  5 or 6 people sent LID in a row I woke up.... remember this 
year instead of LId use Loco..

  hi hi..

    Probably not.  I've read somewhere (probably here) that the log checking 
    software is able to detect "unstable station" exchange information, and 
does 
    not throw the contact out.
