Andy, I am not sure I understand your issue. If they have "Hold Tx Frequency " checked, they are on "their" (I use the term very loosely) frequency and they call CQ after the end of the QSO I don't see what your issue is. If they don't have that checked, then they probably jumped to the frequency you called CQ on and there is a learning opportunity. I agree with the others, assume positive intent and see this as a chance to teach them a better operating style.
Everyone needs to remember it is a *hobby. *Last night I was trying to work a Dx station on CW who was using simplex. I became first frustrated, then amused, by all the guys who if the Dx did not answer their call right away keep right on sending their call every 1 to 2 seconds *right over* the Dx station. There is a scene from the movie* Hunt for Red October* where one of the characters notes, "Heck, they (the Russian anti-submarine search planes) are flying so fast they would never even hear them (Red October) if they were right on top of them!" We all maybe need to slow down a bit, be a little more courteous to each other, and not be quite so quick to jump to the pejoratives if someone doesn't operate quite the way we think they should. There are a lot of new hams out there and that is a good thing for the hobby. And an opportunity for us to Elmer them just as I am sure many of us worked with an Elmer when we were young pups.
