[Dxspider-support] Is dedupe really working?

Please wait a second.
if my dupage = 1800

this should mean that the same spot is not accepted and forwarded for 30
min.
So why Kin you have the same spot every minute:

sh/dx 0TEST

    7070.0 0TEST        1-Feb-2025 1931Z test ignore         <EA3CV>

   7070.0 0TEST        1-Feb-2025 1930Z test ignore         <EA3CV>

   7070.0 0TEST        1-Feb-2025 1928Z test ignore         <EA3CV>

I expect to see only the first spot, and no more dupes for the next 30 min.

Or am I misunderstanding the meaning of $dupeage and $timegranularity ?

How I can accomplish the goal of not accepting dupes if they are sent
within 30 min?
And for dupes I mean the same spotter, dx, qrg, comment ?

Thanks
