That is the second negative reference you have made about cw operators on 160. I don't see why you have a problem with them.

I take it that what you would like to do is run off this "small sociopathic group of CW only on 160 meter dinosaur mentality operators" and use their part of the band for your digital operations. There are a lot of cw ops on 160 that have been there for a long time and have every right to be there. There's some pretty sharp cookies operating cw on 160 meters that know a lot about propagation, and they have learned it by operating there. That is a lot different from learning it by studying computer models and fancy software. Operating cw on 160 meters is a lot of fun and I enjoy it very much, so I guess I'm one of those "dinosaurs." 73

There exists a small sociopathic group of CW only on 160 meter dinosaur >mentality operators that want the band to stay under utilized and therefore a sort QRM free semi private playground or gated community for their single pursuit of CW operation.
