It is now 0930Z and there are 3 stations in the 75 meter DX window calling CQ SS. I tuned up & down the 75 meter band several times and there is more than 100khz of space above 3800 not being used. T

ORIGINAL MESSAGE: -- REPLY FOLLOWS -- The underlying problem is that certain groups of hams think they "own" certain frequencies or windows, just like with the SSTV group on 20 or the CW ops on 160.

I don't often agree with Mal, N7MAL but this time I do. I tuned the 75m DX window Saturday night and found a few stations calling CQ (and spotted them on packet). I did not tune around the band to fi

Mal: Personally, I would stay out of the window, but being QRP, it probably wouldn't matter either way. To answer your question, you should probably direct your concern(s) to the sponsor (ARRL, in th

This discussion kinda reminds me of the old Roger Miller country song, "You Can't Rollerskate in a Buffalo Herd", which seems to be a somewhat appropriate analogy to this situation. Should get really

On Sunday evening, I was lucky enough to find a clear frequency on 75m around 3797. I knew it was in the DX zone, but running low power, any port in a storm. I called CQ and ran a dozen stations or s

I'm not a big fan of special windows during contests. During "normal" times, it makes sense to have certain operating areas in which one can increase the odds of finding like-minded individuals (Digi

I think during contests, ALL rules and gentleman's agreements should be suspended- no power limits, no subbands, no frequency allocations. All of these are an impediment to my making contacts, and re

Not being a 75m DXer, Saturday evening I also unknowingly landed in the "window". I was promptly (and politely) asked to QSY by one of the "window police". Wanting SS QSO's more than an argument, I m

Why even bother having a DX window on SSB? During a major contest 75 meters is so crowded that it's hard to hear anyone at all on your own frequency. During CQWW SSB I heard many DX stations (many in

The purpose of having DX windows etc... was so people with common interests could find each other. These windows have served their purpose and IMO are no longer needed. Just about anyone with a compu

A 2 kHz hole would be a HUGE hole for CW and still a big hole for SSB. I've tried to fit into such holes many times myself. It seems I had such a puny signal in SSB SS that I didn't bother anyone. I
