>From the number of filthy signals that appear in contest, I'd wager that
most of them are deliberately transmitted that way.  They act rather like a
beacon to attract the S&P guys and also are so much of a pest when chasing
Dx that they are worked just to clear the frequency.  I've heard the same
callsigns that are T9 when not contesting or Dx chasing, but pop up in
contests etc. with filthy T5 signals.  It's mostly deliberate.

 

Personally, I'd propose that any signals of T8 and worse should be
boycotted, but it would never work.
