[CQ-Contest] cqww cw spotting report

[David Rollitt]

Hi Dave

I just wanted to add, if the spotters think they are doing nothing wrong,
why the fake calls?
Its obvious someone decided to hide their identity, for whatever reason. We
however don't really
know who that was, but I am guessing someone will. I just work DX for
myself. I enjoyed the CQWW CW
weekend by working a new country on CW, in 40 years I never worked TG on the
key.
