Having my own set of problems with people relying on SuperCheck 
partial I don't use it at all here myself.... Many times I am 
confused with G3YEC, and occasionally we even find ourselves calling 
at the same time in contests. This leads to great amusement when he 
completes his QSO with YEC to find he has to put YMC in the log next. 
Other times they claim I am a dupe...

I am not sure who YEC or SuperCheck was confusing me with when I 
worked him yesterday afternoon as some totally different call 
appeared the first time, but we got there in the end...

Oh, and I don't use the keying functions of SD either, every dot and 
dash is sent with my own paddle and fingers... But I realise that is 
not the norm.
