two thoughts:
why send an rst of 599 if you didn't hear his call? How about 229? And THAT
would NOT fix it either.
It is truly amazing and astonishing how many don't get it, even after having a
frank discussion. With
two or three different ops.. and still no change.
It's a pride or ego thing.. I'd guess.
Have a great day,
