I also want to remind Ron that a highly efficient contest op probably spent
enough time on that frequency to hear

...WN3VAW K

or

[the end of something] followed by [silence]

And then did what any contester would do.  That don't make it wrong.  The
"offending" contesters were probably completely unaware they were being
perceived as offensive.  They probably spent another 1.2 seconds listening
to dead air and then headed up the band, innocently oblivious to the
presence of rare DX.

The downside of Sharing.
