On Thursday I received an email from the WPX committee encouraging me to submit
my log from the 2024 WPX phone contest. Apparently based on other submitted
logs they know which stations were active and encourage them to submit a log
for log checking or just as a friendly reminder. This reminder was for the
P40A callsign which I use in Aruba however I did not participate at all in this
year’s contest from anywhere. My good friend P43A was very active on 15m and he
was apparently mis-spotted once. I am certain that Jean-Pierre correctly said
his callsign but some stations just logged what was spotted. I am not sure how
many stations logged his callsign incorrectly but it was enough for the
committee to send me the notice below: This is just a reminder to not rely on
spots for callsign data as they are sometimes not accurate!
