Cheerleader report:

What the columns mean:
Spotter = the spotting station
dx = the dx being spotted
spots = the number of spots the spotter made for the dx
total = the total number of spots the spotter made during the contest
pct = percentage of the total spots the spotter made for just that one dx
station.

Single spotter report

This is the count and percentage of all the spots for the dx station that
were made by a call that made only that one spot for the whole contest.
Note
I left in a couple of non-contest special events, they normally have higher
percentages since they get spotted by dxers who may just spot them and turn
off the radio.  Note the percentages for them are 15-20% or so, which is
about normal.

DX		Total	All(%)	DXSummit
B4TB		98	71(72%)	7(7%)
PJ2T		646	52(8%)	14(2%)
9X0SP		242	43(17%)	19(7%) (non-contest)
C37N		358	32(8%)	11(3%)
IK2VFR	36	29(80%)	3(8%)
5X0CW		165	27(16%)	10(6%) (non-contest)
S79K		433	26(6%)	11(2%)
5R8X		213	21(9%)	7(3%)
SX2500M	97	21(21%)	9(9%) (special event)
A73A		490	19(3%)	6(1%)
PJ4X		286	18(6%)	7(2%)
TM5KD		45	16(35%)	6(13%)
4L5O		43	15(34%)	15(34%)
MW0JRX	34	15(44%)	15(44%)
D4C		328	14(4%)	9(2%)
HC8A		223	13(5%)	6(2%)
EF8R		365	13(3%)	3(0%)
BY8AC		39	12(30%)	11(28%)
T70A		276	12(4%)	4(1%)

Then consider, why??? 
B4TB has 71 spotters who only spotted him in the contest?
IK2VFR who is hardly special has 80% of his spots from singles??
TM5KD, 4L5O, MW0JRX, and BY8AC also need a closer look.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
TM5KD

Odd, but no pattern that I have seen before, it appears to be a bunch
of F stations with -10 ssid's from f4len-7 node.  Not sure what that means.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
4L5O

This group of spotters all spotted 4l5o from dxsummit from the same ip 
address which was also used by 4l7ar for many spots of 4l5o.  Not that
most are 2x3 calls with odd distributions of letters in the suffixes.
The ip address comes back to 'Caucasus Online' from Georgia.

BY8AC

This group of spotters all spotted by8ac from dxsummit, but from a 
variety of ip's from 2 different blocks, must by dialup or something.
The two blocks both come back to the Sichuan province network in China.

B4TB

These will be harder to point to the exact source without assistance from
the sysop, but it seems to be a rather large and unlikely group of spotters
that all connected to bd5rv's node to make that one contest specific spot.
Note the calls all look reasonable in this, but the comments are unusual.

IK2VFR

Similar to the group above this seems like an unlikely large group
to all connect to w1dx to spot ik2vfr and no one else specifically in 
the contest.  This would of course also need assistance from the sysop
to get the ip's to find out for sure if it is from italy.  Again note
the similarity between many of the comments.

E73ESP

Note this one didn't trigger an alarm above, but still showed up in
other checks.  This group of spotters all spotted from the same ip 
address on dxsummit.  The address comes back to IT Consulting co, Sarayevo.

There were some other things that are in the data files that I didn't
pull out specifically above:

There were lots of spots by and for a61 stations that seemed strange.  
Many of them were by A61KM and A61BN for A61BK.  But then A61BK spotted
A61BM, and A410F was in the mix also.  It may be a case of them all going
through some kind of proxy server and just cheerleading for the buddies.

DT8A did a bunch of self spots, but the same ip was also used by W3NM and
DS4NMJ to spot him.

There were a bunch of spots, many with malformed frequencies put on 
dxsummit.  They were from a couple IP groups allocated to France but
apparently used from the French Carribean islands.  In those FM4LV 
spotted himself many times, as did FM4NB, but the two groups of spots 
shared the same frequency problems where 7186khz was put in as 71862khz.
