The vast majorities of intrans in the CQWW are UNASS-isted.
This means that all of those people are NOT using any help what so ever.
Thus no DX cluster, RBN, Skimmer, … , …
Ore even some one to make you coffee, a sandwich, ore what ever.
Therefore it is not likely that all of those people are calling the DX at
the same time zero beat.
Ore is it?
I say, cut the BS, and the UNASS-isted category.
Whit the exception of someone who really has no internet, en therefore asks
for special permission in advance.
Just my 2 euros, and have fun with the HOBBY!

> Solution? Young (wo)man go split. 100, 2000, 5000 whatever - up (or down).
> Spread'em out. All over the other suckers, screw'em, they are competition

> With proliferation of skimmers, ass-isted operations, things are getting

> Hijacking:
