That is cheating and not grounds for disallowance from total DXCC participation for all users. Certainly I can do that for one QSO if I need to run to the bathroom or grab a quick cup of coffee etc....but if you believe for a second that the FT8 software is designed to crank it up, walk away for a couple hours and come back later to tally up your take as you describe you are showing your lack of knowledge of WSJT’s design. Am I suggesting that some are not doing that...no...not for a minute. Would I suggest that all DXers are running no more than the legal limit when chasing a new one or no more than 200 watts on 30 meters, or not using a remote station element to gain an unfair advantage to add a new one...nope. But it is happening... Should we shut down the entire awards system because the possibility exists that someone will cheat...I think not. I for one think you should rethink your article before submission Alan... Respectfully Cecil K5DL > >>> On Aug 2, 2019, at 4:22 PM, Alan Swinger <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> .
