Is 3Y0X monitoring his QRG ??
The CW bands have gone to Haiti, since the FCC restructured
the requirements for a ticket in 2000. I personally feel the only
way in to HF CW operating privledges is the old Novice class:
only the old Novice bands; 100W max and VFO of course
though. Let the new hams get some operating experiece before
do act like Lids and QRM our CW bands. When I got my
ticket in 1958, the only time I came across the word Lid was
in the ARRL Operating Manual. Now it is status quo. What
an absolute shame - the CONDX on the CW bands. I do
not work SSB, so do not know about CONDX there - PROB
the same.

OK, now let's hear some Shatter, oops I meant Chatter, well
Chat.                   Larry - K4WLS
You hit the nail on the head. I also noticed much QRM from Europe on 30M. Very poor operating practices, particularly one IK9 that called on 3Y0X's frequency constantly, even when he was transmitting. He sent his call 7 times at one transmission! I shut off the rig.
