It means that the signal didn't exactly match so it was sent off to a 3rd machine for verification.

Cheers.

Then Seti@Home will send the same work unit to another system for crunching, hopefully a match will occur at some point, and those sytems that match will get the credit, those that don't just get more workunits ;-)

For those that don't match there is no penalty for the first one, but after a certain number, (in 24 hours) will start to have their allowance reduced.

Sadly I can't see what happened to that workunit as it's been removed. Wish there was a way of logging all the tasks my machines do and store the info for me
