I was running RC2 with this happening, rolled back to RC1 with same
results.  Both boxes were checked as I stated on both sides of contact, but
both stations still appeared in normal FT8.

Have now gone back to 1.9.1 to avoid any more unhappy attempted contacts.
I have noticed that this double sending does NOT occur with all users, just
a select few.

Not at all negative, but just stating what happened.  Will use each and
every new RC and follow the progress and check to see if it's still
happening to me at least.  Overall, I like all the features added to the
RC's and know they will be up to the level you have always attained by the
GA release.
