>From P40A, a number of U.S. stations call me outside of their phone band
in every contests. I doubt it is intentional, just careless spot clicking.

One of those DQed is a YB who made about 50 QSO's, and may not even
understand what self-spotting is. But the worst that happens to a USA
contester, who knowingly or carelessly works stations out-of-band, is that
he/she loses the QSO and gets a slap on the wrist.

That's simply a message to USA contesters that, in the future, they have
nothing to lose (except possibly the QSO) if they work stations
out-of-band.
