Because you couldn't hear them with your "not too puny" station in New
Jersey, my 55 report from Boston was "Pure BS"? You have a bit to learn
about propagation, as well as manners.
And while you're at it, take a deep breath. You'll find it easier to work
them if can you keep your wits about you.

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!!
