Plenty of places to argue politics.

Anyone listening to the CQ WW contest?

Actually, I would not say that's on topic.

There's a whole hierarchy for amateur radio, rec.radio.amateur.* including
one for DX.

It's not fair to listeners to bring most amateur radio topics to
rec.radio.shortwave This newsgroup is intended for monitoring of
radio (and though it's got "shortwave" in the title, it was intended
right from the beginning to not be limited to shortave, hence AM and
FM broadcast fits in).

So in trying to put an on-topic thread here, you've actually gone off-topic.

Nah! Just a bunch of jerkoffs running illegal
power and splattering 20kc's either side
of their centre freq, all just to get their callsigns
listed in some stupid magazine. An utterly pathetic
exercize in RF insanity.

(beside's...it's almost time for the Liberty kooks Net
on 3.950 +/- 10kc if they can find a place to do the
Sat evening goose step. much more amusing than
the CQ WW Clowntest)
