I have to say that I almost never hear such bad manners from French-speaking
operators. Parisian driving technique does not seem to have spread to ham
radio!
It must be something wrong with me; I enjoy driving in Paris!! Hi

Why are new hams using QSL instead of OVER ?

Merry XMAS to all although
I worked VU7LD, by a previous operation , I have VU7LD confirmed on

But since CW is no longer a requirement for a HAM

I respectfully disagree !
CW is and IMHO probably will still be popular for obvious reasons.

I think of more importance to those of us on my side of the pond is the
preponderance of operators from Europe who may have a different focus than east
coast and central North America, arguably the most challenging location for VU4

But, they also added to the 'on-the-air' problems by wasting

You hear a lot of interesting things on 30. There is often a RTTY station
on 10101.0 that sends long transmissions. I don't believe it's an amateur
station.
That is a German Met-station sending WX-reports.

I heard USB the other night around 10.110, and some Swede replied that SSB
is legal on 30m there. However, the QSO sounded much more Spanish than

Happy new year, Charles.
You are above average on sensitivity to other people's situation. It
probably comes from your experience from foreign lands.
Unfortunately the great majority of DX-ers has not travelled and learned as
much as you have. Therefore I believe it to be wishful thinking
that
That is not a fair assessment INMHO.
I believe it is a question of experience, circumstances and probably a lot
of other things.
These chaps live in an overheated tent under what we may call primitive
circumstances and it is probably not so easy to think clearly, except for
getting on the air

Bravo! This is in the finest ham spirit. On the last day of Kure K7C, we
called for first-timers only, and to my surprise, a large number of very

Propagation is just a small part of the game.
It is a big part of the game up here in the North .

The forecast is not particularly optimistic
