I think we have to be careful, that innocent regular users of 160M for non-DX and non-PT0S-DX, don't get swept up as "calling PT0S". Especially with the DX sometimes listening UP through a broad swath of the band... and other times listening DOWN through a different swath... we don't know who they're listening too.
(Then there's the DX that says they're listening up when really listening down!) There are other stations in the world, we all can remember :-) Tim N3QE ________________________________________ From: Topband [[email protected]] on behalf of Jim Brown [[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2012 2:29 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Topband: Outing The Scofflaws...

I am sufficiently disgusted with behavior in the pileups tonight and last night to observe that some using VE3XB repeatedly called PT0S when PT0S was repeatedly calling NN6L. Since VE3 is about 2,000 miles closer to PT0S than I am, and because he was calling over, and over, and over, I'd say it's likely that he would have been copying PT0S at least as well as I was, and I had no trouble telling that PT0S was calling NN6L. Only one example. 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ Topband reflector - [email protected] _______________________________________________ Topband reflector - [email protected]
