[Dxspider-support] Ending ham.cm flooding

[g4piq at btinternet.com]

That node to node movement is ‘interesting’ isn’t it – I glanced at the earlier mail where it looked like they all went to an LZ node. Why do that…. All the spotters (K5WA, CT1CJJ, IK1TAZ, ZL3GA, CT2IMG, PY2NY, ZL3GA, PY2CP) there look like genuine operators in the award – I believe there are over 400 operators taking part. 

 

For the genuine operator, there is no control what node the spot goes in via – you just click a button on the webpage – enter the frequency you are running on, and the system then sends a spot with the link to the award page in the comments field.

I don't think this activity from that IP address is nefarious. The behaviour seen in the CQ contests was a completely different situation. 


But still from the same IP address - as used for nefarious activities in the CQ contests - using the same techniques and open access nodes ...

I'm guessing that neither you nor any other genuine operator is flitting about from node to node spotting from 100s of different callsigns (none of them starting with IQ0 [yes, really]).
