Steve:
On 7/31 about 0745 UTC the KH8SI op asked me after our 40m SSB QSO
exchange how his signal "really" was and , not the usual DXpedition 5/9.
I told him a little on the weak side, but still copyable with no
problem here in North Texas. He said thanks for the reply and went back
to the pileup.

I do not recall seeing/hearing that the guys on Swain's Is. asked us
what they were doing right or wrong. Did anybody else hear that they
were soliciting opinions? Who cares if their rate is only 2 per
hour? Who cares if they want to train future DX ops? Who cares if
they ID at every Q? Who cares if they want to work some JA or USA or
EU? In fact, who cares what they do as long as we can get a Q if we
need it? The Swain's ops have a tremendous amt. of experience among
them. And they are giving Qs to 1000's on as many bands as they can
hear on.
I suggest that those offering their expertise abt what the Swain's
guys shud or shud not be doing wait until after the event is over and
then, if still inclined to speak...do so to the ops personally. 73/dx
