I thought she was doing a *good job*. She wasn't making 100 QSO/hr
rate but when a whole bunch of people decide W7 please? means N4 and
NN3 and KP4 and NF5 should keep calling, and you have to make every
single QSO with a

That was a transcription of an actial qso, you can copnfirm with
W4AMP if you would like, other calls left incomplete to protect he

No doubt, no doubt... I heard exactly the same junk on 14205
yesterday, and I'm sure it's going on on 18160 but fortunately I don't
have to listen to it.
If the replacement op comes back on and starts on ones again it's
going to be bedlam ;-)
It's official, the replacement op came back and just started taking
anyone and everyone.
Again, I'm just a lazy W3 who doesn't appreciate the DXpedition, don't
worry I understand that.
But would it have
Inexperienced operators belong
on low rate bands (e.g., 10 meters, 6 meters) at the end of an
operation not on prime bands the first day of an operation - if
they belong on an operation of this size in the first place.
I don't think that's really fair. I think for an inexperienced op she
was
What we're seeing is another side-effect of the lower of license
requirements.
Ron, don't even go there. I don't want to name-and-shame as G0OIL
says, but of the two worst ones I was hearing yesterday one was
licensed in '86 and the other I know has been a ham for quite a long
time (not sure
An interesting thing just happened.
An English speaking op was running on 17m, split up 5 to 10, doing a great job.
Hundreds were calling blind, but he was running at a good rate.
Suddenly, there was an op change, and another ham (non native english
speaker) came on, and decided to operate
Many of the problems already cited in these current threads are certainly
contributing factors in today's chaotic world of pileups. Civility in general
in society is woefully missing and its absence is also felt on the bands.
Another contributing factor, I believe, is the very high set of
Mike,
I think you're on to something.
TI9 is apparently #87 in the DXCC most wanted for 2006. I'd believe
that... there are other things I would rather knock down but there's
not a whole ton of activity. It's good DX and lots of people need it.
OK, so ZK2 is #75. I'd believe that, right?

Yup, I got the ZK2 on 15 (new band for me), low power/no-amp and with
one or two calls, no waiting. Also this afternoon I got HC1MD on 12m

IMHO, the DX-Pedition operators will ultimately be the ones who must
solve the problem. They will have to get tired enough to start
imposing sanctions on unruly stations. Calling these Bozos out by
callsign publicly isn't a viable solution, but privately taking note
of who they are, and never

Actually Dan, I do want to go there. But before I do that...
I can see that I didn't make myself clear enough. That's no one's fault but
mine, as I was just jotting off a few quick thoughts while taking a break
from something else, and in the process, shortchanged myself.
