GM contesters.  Hope you all are resting well. In the FRC chat room we have been discussing the abundance of apparent self spots during the contest.  Many of our participants who run had their callsi

Wow, what a surprise. I just went and looked at my cluster and sure enough. I was running unassisted and I see that I spotted myself twice. This is not good and the only reason is for someone to ensu

IIRC, maybe 20 years ago Dave, K1TTT did some pioneering work in identifying self-spotters, I think through the use of IP addresses  It may be that the same techniques can be used today - or maybe th

Identifying fake "self-spotting" using IP addresses alone is a non-starter - we all have access to VPNs these days to spoof them. In supporting, as I do, all relevant technological innovation, I reco

While it may not be possible to figure out who the "bad guy" is, it would be interesting to note where these bogus "self spots" originated from. If nothing else, if it can be shown that WX3XYZ, WX4XY
