There are several people who have outright said they refuse to use 1.9.1 (or
WSJTX in general) and/or that they refuse to use DXPedition Mode because they
“don’t agree with being forced to use it.” I’m willing to bet some of the
people causing QRM fall into that category, as well, for some odd reason.

Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] Observation on Expedition Mode
The Baker Island DXpedition has brought out the very worst: Stations calling
blind for hours when KH7Z is not even on FT8, incessant calling below 1000 hz,
calling the wrong call sign (KH7V), calling in the wrong time slot, etc. One
would think that it would be reasonable to at least skim the very ample
instructions that have been put out. But no, it is not about to happen. I came
close to completing for an ATNO on 30m but sadly, I never got his RR73 and did
not go into their log. So, I continue to fight the
uninformed and apparently clueless hoards that have descended upon the bands.
And of course throw in bad propagation, low power,
and a less than ideal antenna system and the odds of making the Q are even
lower. Oh well. There is still time. I'd love to get
KH1 for that ATNO on any mode, any band.
Best regards,
