All:
It's an f'ing hobby! The Kilocycle Kops who brought this up should send
their licenses to Laura Smith and engage in some pastime more fitting to
their nature, like making Bonsai trees or double cross stitch. NQ4I has
more hardware than any 5 or 6 other stations in SECC put together so he has
an inherent advantage anyway.
We are trying to put GA on the air. I don't think this would DQ the
effort.

Subject: [SECC] Self Spotting
It has been brought to my attention that I posted a facebook posting stating
that the GQP was on the air and I listed the suggested GQP frequencies, and
I mentioned that the NQ4I station would be on using the K4HYB call sign all
done 30 minutes into the contest. So I am strongly considering taking the
K4HYB log and not submitting it for the GQP competition. I did what I did
to publicise the GQP and hopefully get some more participation. It obviously
has offended one member of SECC and not taken in the context it was meant. I
apologize to all the hard working members of the K4HYB team. I read the
posting from Norm WA4ZXV and it said that use of spotting networks was
encouraged...I took that to include spotting ones station. No where in my
facebook posting did I specifically state any frequency that K4HYB was using
at the time. Only the suggested GQP spots to look for Ga stations.
