> Obviously, if I am calling CQ ad infinitum and no one comes back, you
could potentially have a right to move me off the frequency since either
I am not getting out or not doing something right.
Sort of:
Being a relative newby with a temporary nice location, I made the wrong
decision and set up for 15M on this contest. 600 w to a Dentron
MLA-2500 and a TS-940S to a 4 element yagi. By 11A local time Sunday
had 88 countries and 339 contacts and all I was hearing was wall to wall
multi-ops calling CQ (had the calls memorized). Turned the beam to the
NW so the east coasters were off the side (after noting that CQ mag
mentioned a weak opening to the far east then). Found a clear spot at
the top of the band and worked a dozen weak Russians who answered my
CQs. They at the 3db down point on the beam. Then an hour of vocally
calling CQ on "my frequency' with only 3 contacts: India, Thialand and
Indonesia. The latter called a big gun W3 later and was told "Sorry, I
have the beam on Eu, try me later!" Made my day!
Also to the point of this thread, Half way through the second hour, a 7
came up and asked me to move as I had a strong signal and was ruining
his frequency. I asked if I was overdriving and he said no, just to
loud a signal close to his frequency. End of discussion.
