Forty was an entirely different can of worms. What an embarrassment.

The embarassing thing about the operator on 40 is the fact that the team has
been made aware of the less than stellar performance on that band and
obviously decided not to do anything about it.

I wasn't commenting on the op at 3Y, I was talking about the idiots
calling him. Most of the time there were so many fools calling on his
TX freq that I couldn't tell what kind of op -he- was.

I think the DX should listen on their TX freq from time to time. If
they hear things like last night they should just QSY up 50 or so and
leave the idiots behind. The DXers who actually tune the band will
find and work him in the clear, until of course, one of them makes the
mistake of spotting him, then it's time to QSY again.

I agree, Wes. I wasn't commenting on your post as much a Peter's.
But, I know where Peter is coming from, too.

Actually, last night, I could not hear most of the NA stations. IT
made it hard to find who he was working, but nice, as I could not hear
the lids.

All in all, I think it has been a great operation. I have not been to
bed before 3:00 AM yet. My fist is sore from calling, and I enjoy
every minute of it.

Win, w0lz.
