[CQ-Contest] Self spotting?

[Joe]

I guess that can happen one of two ways,
Yes N1MM+ BUT..... not in ESM mode,  In ESM it will change to Run 
automatically.

OR,

People not thinking all the way through Thinking when they see the Spot 
all S&P contacts and thng Great I'll help, but not understand totally 
how it works, if they do not have a radio that is computer controlled, 
all will also be on the same freq.
