As it stands we have No way to deal with them. We need a way. Just last night I had a PA station I had never worked send me RR73 over and over for 30 min.

Case in point was during the heyday of packet radio (I call it the Packet Radio Wars). If you did not march to 'their' drum you were locked out of all nodes, BBS' gateways, etc. Such a thing should be banned. If it is there, someone will use it to push their agenda. That's not in the spirit of amateur radio. Best regards Gary, K7EK --- On Monday, December 2, 2019, 04:39:31 PM EST, David Gilbert <xda...@cis-broadband.com> wrote: I have the same opinion. I almost never use "Call 1st" and I find it trivial to operate without it no matter how many callers I get. Even FT8 should be able to handle some degree of operator proficiency. 73, Dave AB7E On 12/2/2019 1:00 PM, Jim Brown wrote: > On 12/2/2019 2:54 AM, Martin Davies G0HDB wrote: >> In summary, I don't see any need whatsoever for any modification of >> the 'Call 1st' capability >> to include any forms of queuing or callsign lockout > > Agreed.
