All Dx stations (rare and semi rare) should give some time

I think all DX stations that pay for their own radio and put up
their own antenna should operate where and how they damn
well please......

Tonight and early this AM I listened to HF0QF work DX on 40 SSB. I and
several other USA stations started calling him on CW asking him to listen
up
for USA. I know he heard us because
he was S8 to 9 here and only S5 to 6 in Europe. Dave K4JRB


You answered your own question. The guy wanted to talk with
friends, not hand out contacts and cards to stateside. Seems
simple to me. Its a hobby.
