[CQ-Contest] Spoofed Self spots

[Mike VE9AA ve9aa@nbnet.nb.ca]

Peter,

I appreciate the humbleness and acknowledgement and the trend is 
upwards, so we're mostly in agreement .

I shouldn't think a contester would need to rely on the Internet to be 
competitive. (ie: cqww wpx as one example/can o' worms)

Hows this: "for the large community of hams who rely on spotting 
networks, it's
very important that what comes out is a reliable replica of what went 
in."

I'm pretty sure I heard you shout 3 or 4 times. ;)
