Agreed Bill!

Amateur radio has MANY facets;

VHF
UHF
Moonbounce
Repeaters
 IRLP and Allstar Linking
QRP
CW
Phone
  AM
  SSB
  FM
Rag Chewing
Emergency Communications (important people in high vis coats and vests)
Wide band SSB
RTTY
SSTV
Contesting
  SSB
  CW
  RTTY

There are going to be some weekends, you don’t get to do your "thing" on the "the bands".


I'm glad our hobby has so many facets.

Really?  Where does it say that in Part 97?

The non-RTTY digital boys have two self-created problems which only
they can fix:

1.  They love their waterfall displays with ridiculously wide
bandwidths.  When your receiver is broad as a barn door, what to you
think is going to happen?

and

2.  Partly because of #1, they insist on running power which is hardly
more than a night light.

So when their night light gets stepped on by a perfectly legal RTTY
contester WHO CAN NOT HEAR THEM, they cry foul. Well, duh!

Contesters have been very good about not using the WARC bands, ever.
Take a hint.
