Sponsor Conflict Prevention went away when the NAB did a consent 
decree regarding restraint of trade; IIRC, the "Standard NAB 
Contract" was the first casualty.

Best one I've heard is for THREE jewelers back-to-back, a sweeper, 
then two MORE jewelers back-to-back... PLUS a repeat of one of the 
jewelers from the FIRST portion of the stopset.  FIVE DIFFERENT 
jewelers within the same six-minute stopset (Oh, yeah - all sixties; 
no 30 second pikers in THIS lot!)

Used to be, the only time you'd get competing spots was when you ran 
a National spot in a local position of a network program, and someone 
in Traffic forgot to check against the commercial listing... or the 
network did some shuffling without telling anyone.....
