Hi Dirk

How about this?  

A new PC9x protocol could be developed for DX spots.  I love how easy it
is to dupe check PC9x messages.  This makes dupe checking really fast.

This new PC9x could include the IP address of the spotter.  It would be
a little bit more difficult to convert these to PC11 when required, but
not a lot.  Including the tilde character at the end would help confirm
the message had not been truncated in transmission.

Lee

Curiously, it is actually easier for me to use PC61 with an IP address 
on the end. So given a free choice, I would stick with PC61.
