[DX-CHAT] Re: [DX-NEWS] DXpedition calling practices
I Mostly agree, BUT best way to eliminate most of the heavy pile-up problems is to SPREAD it larger as possible i.e. CW - TX on .025 RX UP - higher as possible usse the jump lsn .032 then .044 then 059 back etc. its verry bad when DX usse so called DRIVE move step by step UP then down - then everybody know where DX is lsn all pile-up is focused in just few KHz QRM is too heavy , while other - midle freq are mostly empty with few callers. same on SSB , its verry hard for both sides if DX stn lsn 200-210 - QRM is too heavy focused in just few KHz its much better to usse 200-250 FULL CALL PLEASE usse the jumping allso. In this case: - there will be not much stations calling on same freq - so NOT much QRM-ers, - trying to find where DX is lsn. to give a call is not much productive just loosing of time - giving full call on SSB will produce more uniq CALL's in DX LOG However MOST IMPORTANT is to LISTEN LISTEN what DX stn. saying (keying)! IF DX say 2ZM? - ALL others QUIET - If You do so - then QSO with 2ZM will finish verry soon You will have chance to work the DX too - before CONDX gone, otherwise You just can go to the black list of DX operator He will try to ESCAPE QSO with You. JA's ALLWAYS IMPRESS Me with their discipline! HAVE NICE DAY ENJOY THE DX-ing !

It really accomplishes nothing but dividing the pileup. It accomplishes nothing more. There are better ways. The DXpeditioner should be paying attention to propagation and where/whom he is working. An important DXpedition must pay attention to the target area, the one of the three population centers in the world that is be the most difficult. Working by continents accomplishes this as well as dividing the pileup. Where you have two more-or-less equal targets you can even run two separate pileups, one in each area. Yes, it can be done, even on CW. Even Europe!

Re: [DX-CHAT] msnbc.com: Family electrocuted putting up radio antenna
I'm verry sorry to read about this tragedy. OC Bob- W1YRC, TNX for the nice link who discovered FAMILY NAMES. Comparing the link bellow the address at QRZ.com it was probably a CB - Radio antena, NOT a HAM Radio antena! Family who died: Melville Braham, 55, his wife Anna, and their 15-year-old son Anthony BTW: its NOT KJ4KFF as I read somewhere , the KJ4KFF is Barbara V Tenn. There is 194 HAM CALL's in Palm Bay FL-32907 - listed on qrz.com I hope someone is here on DX-Chat can confirm that this is NOT a HAM Radio-Family.
