Yuri and Pete,
I find that on 160 Meters the JA operators are still 'Gentlemen'.
I find that if I have just a single letter wrong in a JA call sign the other
stations will not respond. In fact, at times I think they are too discrete
in not responding to something that is NOT their exact call sign.
Mis dos centavos.

I agree with you Peter.
It's much worse than even 10 years ago.
And there is no "geographical" difference anymore.
Even JA's behaviour worsened.
Don't know why.

Can someone explain to me why everyone calls all the time? It doesn't
matter if the other station is listening, sending an exchange, trying to
get a call. How many W# call when the DX sends N1?
This is just getting worse and worse. In CQWW I heard a DX station having
to send the exchange three and 4 times in a row to get the pileup to slow
to the point where the guy he's working could hear it!
Why?
Pete, W1RM
