I just avoid 20M. Problem solved. There's other bands which respond as
well with fine gentlemen operators, 17M and 30M as examples. If you've
not tried 60M, it is a wonderful relief from the vocabulary found on 40M.

Sounds like what happens almost anywhere on the bands if you call cq in AM.
Apparently all frequencies are now “owned” :-)

It looks like Digital SSTV.
The "babies at play" are a group of SSTV operators who think they own a certain
piece of 20M SSB. If you dare to call CQ there, even when it's empty and after asking if
the frequency is in use, you'll be bombarded by their transmitters running as much power
as they can, intentionally interfering with you.
