Tom,
Roger Tom. As a DX station, you know that many stations move to your transmit
freq and call. Then it becomes bad as the deliberate QRM starts. Sometimes it
is amazing how many stations needlessly get on a DX station's transmit freq.

It doesn't make qrm unless you start calling on the DX's frequency. But in
that case it's a nuisance. I have no problem with lots of stations calling me
as long as the stay off my tx frequency.

Tim,
Everything the others have said is true. But it is a matter of perspective
too.
Sometimes people click on a DX or desired station whenever they see it pop on
their Band Activity screen. This station [the "clickee" :-) ] often appears
without showing its grid square. Sometimes the "clicked" or DX station may be
doing an FT8 exchange with another station. In my opinion, we do not want to
click on a station ... DX or not while they are in QSO with another station.
Besides being rude, that practice sometimes generates deliberate QRM on the
freq and nobody makes a QSO then. I am sometimes a DX station when operating
from Hawaii, and that practice not only slows the process down, but it also can
bust a number of QSOs. Often, I will not respond to an FT8 station who breaks
in like that, and I know other DX operators who share my thought.
Having said that, it seems like some stations call after a final "73"
concludes the previous FT8 contact. That is probably OK and the "responding"
or "clickee" station's grid is sent unlike when a station simply QRMs and
attempts to break in.
73, Danny

I have noticed lately that when I send CQ on FT8 A few stations respond
with the signal report not their grid square.
Is there something here I do not understand?
