Take a more likely scenario. The YB scenario is silly.
I'm on 80m calling CQ contest with my KW and sloper array. My (local)
S-meter is hovering around S-9 with power line noise, QRM from other
guys in the northeast on nearby frequencies, etc. I have no problem
hearing and working HG6N, G4BUO, IS0IGV, etc. I know there are weak
guys calling, but I can't pull them through.
Now, I'm listening on my remote receiver in DL and I can copy all the
third and fourth tier EU signals that are calling me with their 5-100W,
indoor loops, etc.
No way should this be permitted.
