I have a pre-processor that strips all incoming RBN and other skimmer traffic from SSID numbers and converts every spotter into a baseline call. That is, all skimmer spots coming in and going out of N2WQ-1 should not have any SSID. My concern is that the JH7CSU-1 spots came via PC61. I raised a similar concern yesterday regarding spots distributed by GB7VAX.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">If someone is converting skimmer spots into regular spots the consequences are scary. In the last 24 hours alone, during a high Aurora activity, N2WQ-1 distributed 4.7M skimmer spots (CW, RTTY, and FT); imagine what will happen if the spots were converted into human-generated spots and pushed via PC61.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Rudy N2WQ</div></div></body></html>
