[Dxspider-support] Lots of Disconnects

[Mike McCarthy, W1NR]

No, I wasn't bashing anyone, just pointing out behavior that escalated 
due to the volume of spots during a contest weekend.

Normally, when I see this type of behavior either Hamclock generated or 
multiple connections and not using an SSID, I send the person a polite 
email pointing out the issue and how to resolve it. But this was at 
least 8 different users and I just didn't have the time to find each 
email to send them a personal message. I just put up a banner in my motd 
asking hamclock users to upgrade. Whether they see it is another story.

Now if someone can find me a spare roundtuit I'll send them each a 
message. I've been real short on them lately.

THAT was the equation. EXISTENCE!... SURVIVAL... must cancel out... 
programming!
