Around 1915Z Sunday I suddenly had a flurry of dupes. 10 dupes in the next 14 QSO's was pretty bad, especially when I was sending my call after every QSO. I finally stopped and sent my call slowly over and over about 20 times. That seemed to put an end to it. After the contest I looked at DX Summit and sure enough an LA8 had spotted "K0HR" two minutes after working me.

At 1349 on Sunday, I was mis-spotted in Europe as N4ZL, with "WV" in the comments. In the next 11 minutes, 7 of the 13 people who called me were dupes. It occurs to me that looking for similar clusters of dupes around packet busts would be one way to spot undisclosed use of packet spots. 73, Pete N4ZR _______________________________________________ CQ-Contest mailing list CQ-Contest at contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/cq-contest
