Aren't we all?

I don't keep up with the League's schedule or frequencies, nor
K1MAN's. I find a clear spot and transmit. It seems that many times
the frequencies were clear because I was the only one that didn't know
the League's schedule. On the other hand, K1MAN tried to take over
the GA SSB Net frequency every night at net time. His "research"
showed that that was the only logical frequency for his broadcast,
which he repeated several times daily. Additionally, there was a
station that began broadcasting "code practice" 24 hours a day on the
CW QRP calling frequency. I am a Christian and Bible believer, but
calling it code practice doesn't justify the means. Several others
have come and gone over the 26 years since I have been licensed. Like
K1MAN and the League, they started their broadcasts on a set frequency
at a set time without regard for QSOs in progress.

Opinionated? Well, like Pavlov's dog, I (we) have been conditioned.

Thanks, again, for your courteous approach.
