Some use the dirty signal as a shield, and use it to keep the adjacent
frequencies clear. Nobody like to be close to a dirty signal. In fact there
is a notorious W1 who seems to be able to turn his clicks on and off at
will to "clear up" his frequency.
Living out west, I don't know who you're talking about. You would do all
of us a service by outing him.
The second group has a different attitude...denial. "I paid $6000 for
this rig and you tell me I have a dirty signal". Yep, you spent all that
money and don't have a clue how to set up your audio so it doesn't sound like
manure.
I think you've exactly hit the mark with this, Bill. I've started
telling guys with bad audio that "it's so bad that they sound like South
Americans." And I don't care of the South Americans with lousy audio
get the message that THEY need to fix theirs! :)
