Hi, I agree with Jim K9YC, On 6m i prefer that when i call CQ a station coming back to me calls me with report instead of grid. Openings are very short and QSO flows faster. Also i prefer that those stations call me off freq. My program it set to call with report always especially on 6m band. JA's are using the same kind of sequencing and many more QSO's could be made during short openings. Theirs discipline and spectrum spreading are best of all contintines around the globe. Hat down to them all.
About Lids, we had them b4 on CW, SSB and other modes and we will have them always. When someone makes a QSO with me and later starts to CQ on my freq i simply delete that QSO if he doesnt move from my freq when i ask him to QSY. QSO its saved into the Adif but he will never get a QSO confirmation of any kind. My rule ;) 73, Patrik 9A5CW ned, 28. srp 2019. 22:14 Jim Brown <k...@audiosystemsgroup.com> je napisao: > On 7/28/2019 12:56 PM, Gary Kohtala - K7EK via wsjt-devel wrote: > > Also those that call my station with a signal report on their first > > transmission (no full callup and no grid). > > > > I ignore folks like that.
