I started NAQP a few minutes late yesterday and S&Ped up the band
looking for a place to CQ. I found a quiet spot and asked twice if
the frequency was in use with no response. I started CQing and had
made several contacts when a gentleman called and said that I was
interfering with a DX net a couple of kHz up and politely asked if I
would move. Being a nice guy and knowing I probably wouldn't win a
battle anyway, I agreed to move. The caller thanked me for my
courtesy and said he would give me a QSO and a rare NAQP multiplier
as a reward.
I wonder if this resulted in my being the only one to work a KG4 in
the contest?

PS. I moved on and immediately found another spot to CQ.
