IMO it could be any of these:
1. You moved to an area with very untrained officials
2. Being the new guy the officials you are working with don't trust you and feel the need to take your calls
3. Being the new guy the officials you are working with think the coaches won't trust you and feel the need to take your calls
4. These guys are knocking off some early season rust.
You can usually get these guys to back off by talking to them about taking your calls early on. If you're the type that enjoys a good confrontation tell them to stay the hell out of your area. If you're the peace keeping type tell them you had it all the way and they called it the wrong way. In any event now that you're getting a taste of what things are like where you are you should emphasise primary areas in your pregame.
BTW, for a seasoned guy to call your line *twice* is insulting, imo - doing it once is bad enough. I wouldn't put up with it very long, I might even be tempted to reverse his call if it was close.
