Marc,
I haven't seen any recently, but over the years I have seen very few suspicious
QSLs. If I was active at the time, I try to figure out what happened and reject
the QSL for the appropriate reason, or in some cases, I find that I had
miscopied a call sign and I correct my log to fix that problem. I would think
that any user receiving a lot of rejects could easily be flagged in the system
and any significant "padding" activity could be identified by eQSL. But
probably more importantly, it takes careless confirmations to facilitate any
fraudulent QSLs. So in great measure, EQSL is a self-policing system.
73,
Bill N3XL

Subject: [RTTY] Mak RTTY Contest bogus logs
Is it just me or have others noticed an increase in people trying to pad their
logs with calls for the mak contest last weekend?.
One call in particular I find disturbing is a club call, I prefer not to
divulge the call at this point and time , but when I logged into EQSL I seen
log attempts on each band , bands I don't even have an antenna operational for
at this time... Is this a normal procedure for a contest club to attempt to pad
their logs , like how low can these guys get, this just irks me because I
almost confirmed the qsos on the hunch I made a log entry error, but then I
noticed several others from the same call on bands I did not even operate on...
73 and look forward to the next RTTY Contest
