Today the wrong summit was spotted although the correct one was alerted.
We (M6BWA/P and M0JLA/P) were both on G/WB-022 Seager Hill in Herefordshire.
I repeated the summit reference frequently as I usually do but only became aware of the problem at a late stage when a chaser confirmed the wrong reference and did not return when given a negative report.
Sorry if this means some unique chases need deletion.

This morning at around 10:00 UTC M0IML/P was spotted on both G/SE-015 and G/SE-013 within a 10-minute interval. I still do not know which of the two summits he was actually on! This is not the first time this has happened with this particular activator.

both G/SE-015 and G/SE-013
I took a quick look at the spots still visible. They all put M0IML/P on G/SE-015. The spot posted just after 10am for G/SE-013 also gives an incorrect activator callsign…

But when I worked Barry he said G/SE-013

Hmmm… Confusion reigns, then… His self-spots said G/SE-015 Cheriton.

Well when I spoke to Barry I didn’t ask him for the reference.
The caller before me however was someone in Dover.
Barry told him he was just a stones throw away, on Cheriton Hill near Folkestone.
That would seem to tie in with Barry’s self spot of SE-015!
In reply to G4ISJ:
I see that Barry’s log on 08/04/2014 is for G/SE-015.
