You must have been one of the really strong stations I heard during
the last ARRL 160m contest that kept calling CQ over and over without
being able to hear all the stations that were answering you. It must
have been frustrating.

Hmmm, from your statements, and text--if adhered to, most-certainly
suggests, they must be following your advise, surely! The "alligators",
or, i.e., stations which are all mouth and no ears ...

However, I am willing to debate, argue, stand-behind, etc., all which I
have said ... I actually HAVE built my antennas, and continue to do so
.... indeed, my statement is, "Only lamers buy them."
