Interesting attitudes. I agree that hogging a calling frequency is bad form.
That said, an answered CQ could be responded to with, "K0PP DM42 from N7WS" in
no more time than, "K0PP I'm moving to 144.210." If this was a meteor burst
there would be no QSO, but at least I wouldn't be on you s list.
I guess everyone should just monitor the calling frequency but never ever call
there. End of problem.

Anyone I hear making QSO's on the calling frequency goes on my
"don't ever work" list posted on my desk, and will miss my somewhat
rare grid square. (DN36) (;-)

Do you work CW? It's a LOT more effective under the marginal conditions
that often exist on 6M/2M. Saw you spotted yesterday on the calling
frequency. That's a great place to monitor, but a terrible place to
operate. The good ops move off the calling frequency when the band is open.
