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. Gary KA1J _______________________________________________ Topband reflector - [email protected]
