I suspect it's because someone thought you were QRMing TJ2TT; He was pretty
much QSA0 for me. Local QRN/QRM has made 160 very tough for me; I could barely
hear Roger and he is usually fairly easy copy.

Roger,
I was QRV for awhile, but seem to have attracted someone who hated my guts. I
was QRMed while trying to work stations. they put a carrier on top of the
stations I tried to work. They QRMed the dx station and were sending false
signal reports in hopes of confusing me. Then they came on and sent me
disparaging remarks and called me a "bone head". I went QRT. I know I am not a
great operator, and make mistakes, but who needs that when you are trying to
relax and have some innocent fun? I am starting to sour on the Gentlemen's
band moniker. It was quite upsetting.
We had a fair amount of lightning static here, but conditions seemed pretty
fair otherwise. You peaked up pretty loud at times. I could barely detect
4K6FO last night. He was good copy the night before. I did not hear any SA
stations and I think they were QRV. Each nite is different!
