[Skimmertalk] [CC-User] Busted FT8 skimmer spots

An addendum I omitted:

Another issue is that users of traditional Telnet DX spotting systems  are
accustomed to the data improvements made possible by VE7CC's and the RBN's
filtering systems that remove stochastic, spurious unique RTTY and CW
skimming spots so we seldom see busted spots, despite them being generated
in the raw data at higher percentages than for FT8 and FT4.  But
because there are many more FT8 spots, there are going to be errors in
the raw data and we haven't developed a quality spot filtering system for
these digital modes.
