I saw that  Boston callout. No way, Jose.

My station -- not too puny --had ZERO copy when that Boston call came out. Pure BS IMO. The best I heard 'em was 52. Our Italian friends played cops on 20 meters. Someone even yelled at ME (when I was working split at 14201) yelling directly at ME! (on the DX freq 14185) "N2ERN - working ones" -- long after they were calling twos. What lids!!! You could just puke! At least I was in the split range!!

I'll still be in there, but my band is 18 -- and I expect (hope) to work 'em there.


I am not by any means a newcomer to DX, but THIS is worse than ever -- and no one can blame the US lids for it!!! Call by numbers is fine -- as long as WE can hear what numbers the DX is calling!!.

Shame on the world's hams!!

N2ERN


Another reason for DX to call by numbers instead of geographical area......

THE BS7H WAS STRONG HERE THIS AFTERNOON INTO NE USA, BUT WAS CALLING EU. I
WAS VERY TEMPTED TO CALL HIM ANYWAY BUT LET IT GO. EVEN SO PROBABLY WOULD
NOT HAVE BROKEN THROUGH EU PILE. WISH HE HAD LISTENED FOR NA AT THAT TIME.
STILL, IT GIVES ME HOPE THAT IT  MIGHT JUST BE POSSIBLE TO GET HIM AFTER
ALL.
