[Dxspider-support] Self-spotting and de-duplication

[Keith, G6NHU]

Now that self spotting is allowed for a trial period in all RSGB HF contests, I’ve been asked about self-spotting and submitting duplicate spots by a couple of my users.

Some time ago I set minselfspotqrg to 0 to allow self spotting but what is the situation regarding duplicates because I understand some logging software can now self spot every few minutes.  I don’t necessarily agree with this but it’s going to happen more and more.

What’s the period during which the cluster will reject a self spot as a dupe please and is there a variable that can be tweaked to adjust it?

Thanks,

73 Keith.
