I'm not so sure I like the 3 strikes policy. My reasoning is lets say 
some AH wanted for instance, to discredit stiff competition and 
pirated their call using it while intentionally create interference 
in the DX window. It wouldn't take long for this to disqualify that 
operator unfairly.

What I see as reasonable is to make operating in the DX window a 
penalty where when the test scores are sent in by cabrillo, those 
working the window would be identified. When the scores are sent in, 
the IP address is added to the x-header and simply going to 
http://aruljohn.com/track.pl and entering the IP will tell you where 
the senders location is.

Make it known every QSO within that DX window from W/VE not working a 
DX station will have a punitive docking of points. If they have the 
guts to do this, there will quickly be a hole in the ether for DX to 
be heard.
