Sounds like operator error on the other end.  This happens constantly in 
and out of contests where people call at the exact same time and are 
about the same strength.  On RTTY you get garbage, on CW and SSB you can 
probably pull out a letter or two.

 Think I'm getting a good taste of RTTY Skimmer here.  Every time I 
call CQ on 15 I get about 3 or 4 JA's all zero beat, about S-2 or 3 
calling me at the same time.  Send 'agn?' and they all call again. 
Takes 3 or 4 tries to finally get a call out of the mess.
 Is there a way to tell it, 'Don't spot me, please?'  Think I'll go 
watch basketball instead.   73

Hi all.
 Mario I could agree with you partially. The DL4RCK RTTY was made and 
worked on field well before any other RTTY Skimmer. Almost two years 
ago there was a working network of DL4RCK RTTY Skimmer. All those 
working pretty well.
Now I am looking, since almost January, as to make it easy, and the 
deployment of the VE3NEA Skimmers a lot of busted RTTY calls a lot of 
multiplier that are not multipliers and a whole plethora of bad 
call-signs spotted by the newest RTTY Skimmer. By myself my call was 
spotted as W1AYD several times in between IW1AYD. But also more easy 
calls that fall under simpler rules are busted since the new and not 
so bright RTTY Skimmer schema went on. Full stop.
