Barry makes a good point that few of the "send your call till the smoke
runs out of your amp" crowd will ever figure out I guess. OD5/OK1MU had an
interesting approach to mining the hearing problem last night . He
regularly announced changes in his QSX freq. Sometimes QSX UP 2 or 3 and
then suddenly announce QSX DOWN 1 or 2. It was interesting to listen and
see which stations consistently were calling (and calling ,and calling ,
and calling) on the wrong QSX...so....
much time listening to who he is working as you do listening to the DX you
are trying to work.
I did the same thing from JW5HE to reduce the fatigue when JW was a rare one
on the newer bands. It was people calling "wall to wall", but by transmitting
QSX " XYZ " i managed to get the pile up down to a level, that even this
old fart could handle ! hi
I learned it from Einar LA1EE, who used it from Peter 1 the first time that
came on the air. It works wonders , when done properly.
