Hi TTyers,
What happens when certain rttyers, who have no clue they are on simplex,
continue to send their call about 8-10 times while you are trying to work
the dx? This is not just one transmission but on and on. I guess eventually
they will figure it out but meantime your Q is blown because you cannot
copy your report.
Food for thought I guess..is sending "UP UP" worse or the lid's call 10
times on top the weak dx?
No matter what words the DX sends "UP or Not here" it won't make a
difference to a few who are sloppy about working split or don't know how to
operate their radio.
Cops are a pain, listen to the TI and PW operations on phone.. but what is
the answer?
