Last SS SSB I was in the same situation, a net was about to fire up high
on 20 and the net controller asked me if I would move for their net.
I told him that it would be hard for me to find a new freq, but I would
move if they would give me 10 or 15 qsos. He called for his net to do
so, I explained what I needed and made the qs, and they got the freq.
Seemed like a fun thing to do for both of us.
I dont know what the ARRL do with the uniques in my log but they sure
are real.
