[CQ-Contest] Re: [NCCC] NS3T's wild accusation

Good solid and reasonable reply, Dave. I saw many of your spots and
appreciated them. I too spotted many friends so our NCCC guys could find
them; many more than once. I don't see the point ns3t is trying to make.
Certainly self-spotting is contrary to the rules, but spotting other
stations, no mater how many times is not against the rules. I wonder
where ns3t was observing these spots; perhaps some telnet node somewhere,
and what is his evidence (and criteria) for determing a self-spot has
occurred. Rather annoying to make this accusations without supporting
evidence.

Below is an accusation by NS3T regarding self spotting.  I would like 
to set the record  straight for one and all
 
 I made a concentrated effort to spot stations during the WPX 
 whenever I was in S&P  mode.  I was very active and probably sent over
350 spots.  Many were dx, many were domestic.  Some more than once. That
I happened to spot NR6O  numerous times is in  no way a violation of any
rule. Where does it state that you can only spot a station  once? <<<
