[CQ-Contest] Summarizing the Skimmer Accuracy Thread

[Barry]

On a positive note, skimmer is NOT posting that very prolific 2x0 
callsign from the Ivory Coast - TU.
Probably not necessary as station TU signs that callsign almost every 
QSO.  Once in a while, he signs a different callsign, so there must be 
more than one op there :-)
