The day prior to BS7H coming up, I had a pile up as HS0ZCW, using one freq
split (no spread of callers). I am sure most used my sig as a test to see
how they may get into this part of the world and a few probably thot I was
BS7H. Anyway, the pile up was beyond imagination... Many more than I
Punishing all operators from a particular region because a few misbehave
just increases the frustation level and puts more QRM on the DX
frequency.
Thanks for us, europeans. I guess that with BS7H now on, we'd better be
prepared to listen to the US crybabies.
That's the risk, for sure.
Guys, unfortunately this has become the situation here in Europe. .
I really don't know where the mass of deliberate QRM comes from, though
mostly it seem to be from east or south-east into England so could come from
anywhere in Europe. Certainly a lot of the undisciplined cretins seem to
The deliberate QRM started to be real bad when the worldwide DX-clusters came
up on Internet. it wasn't difficult to work
BS7H in 1994 (not OK for DXCC), 1995 and 1997. Close down all DX-clusters and
working DX will again be a pleasure!

BS7H was 5-5 to 5-7 much of the afternoon here in eastern PA, n a 3 el yagi.
I'm surprised that they couldn't be heard in NJ, just a few miles east of my
QTH. Must be something wrong with the antenna or the feedline. Or maybe an
arrogant, ill-mannered attitude blocks the ears (as well as the
I have been duly told off.
I think that a split listening area from 200 - 225 is way too big.
I think that FEWER ops were calling on the TX frequency (for a
change) but the cops (wherever they came from) made things much worse
(as usual).
I agree that worldwide internet packet HAS made
Great quote Dave. This is only a hobby. I am not going to die if I don't
work BS7H (and the likelihood of it at this point looks prety slim -
they're supposed to be on 14024 now and I don't hear a peep).
When the weak signals, kilocycle cops and tuner-uppers get to me, I
usually just shut

A propagation path (or lack thereof) can be highly localized at this
point in the cycle. Although I have heard them at times (always working
Europe or Japan when they can be heard here) thus far they have not
moved my S meter.
The numbers (propagation) have been quite poor, but more or less
They had a good signal into Colorado this morning. I heard several
Stateside stations from CA to MN get through so they were being heard all
over the western US. I hope they have as good a signal on 160M because now
I think we stand a chance of hearing them on this band. It will probably be

Well, they were perfectly readable on 20 SSB earlier this morning (S
2-3). I had a shot when they called for NA and cut the spread down to
200 - 210, but didn't get through. Now (1345) I can barely hear them.
I still have hope. Those last 2 are a b*tch.

BS7H sure was loud this morning. When he took a break from the JAs and asked
for NA only, he only worked 1 or 2 and I don't think he heard any more.
There were lots of us calling him, but the prop seemed to be one way.

The K index was 5 this morning and it is a polar path. K is now 1, so
that should help...

Perhaps self discipline is a lost art. Certainly here in the UK, respect
for other human beings are now a lost art, particularly in the cities where
gangs of feral youths terrorize neighborhoods, vandalize anything in sight and
stab of shoot each other. Education is long dead.
