Well, I don't get to do many runs to EU on 160 Meters, but it surely is
exasperating (a kind understatement) to be trying to dig out a real weak one
during a JA "run" and after a minute or two rotate the Beverage selector
switch to the eastward direction and find a pee water weak W1-W4 calling in.
And then when I finally decipher the call through the QRN and QSB dips, it
turns out to be a DUPE.
Anyone remember the single photo cartoon series which appeared in the daily
newspapers in the '50's and '60's titled, "The Urge to Kill"?
YES, use the big marble between your shoulders for something other than a
headphone rack!!!!!!!!!!!!

Subject: [CQ-Contest] Suggestion - don't make stateside to stateside
QSOsduring the EU opening
While nobody likes the 0 pointers, they are a necessary evil.
What isn't necessary is calling fellow stateside stations during the
maximum rate hours, i.e., when the band is open to Europe.
