So there I was, enjoying a nice run in the RU on about 14.133 at 23:54 or so and all of a sudden a station that did not ID itself told me "FREQUENCY IN USE BY NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL EMERGENCY NET
No person or group "owns" any frequency -- period Why would you even respond to an unidentified call ??? Rick - WU6W So there I was, enjoying a nice run in the RU on about 14.133 at 23:54 or so and a
Because he seemed to be declaring an emergency was in effect - I believe we all should respect the declaration (but ask questions later). Anybody ever seen anything like this? Jerry W4UK Rick - WU6W
ORIGINAL MESSAGE: (may be snipped) REPLY: I have not seen this myself but if it ever happens I would send PLEASE IDENTIFY OUR STATION. If they don't I'm not QSYing. 73, Bill W6WRT ___________________
If it was legit, he'd have IDed. I think I would have just transmitted QRZ? a time or two. -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train! _______________________________________________ R
What Rick said, next time ask for a call sign. That usually shuts them up or sends them into jamming mode or worse. I was threatened once with FCC action if I didn't move, still waiting.... Ron K0IDT
That was a WINLINK operative - you were in their sacred automatic band. Did anyone notice how many times the winstink crap fired up on top of existing activity this weekend above 14095?? I did, and t
It happened to me too. This guy kept sending "PLEASE QSY, YOUR CAUSING INTERFERENCE TO OTHER STATIONS." I had to ask three times to identify. He finally did ID and I obliged. However, he went so far
Having "Emergency" in the name of the net does not mean that there is an actual emergency. Personally I would just ignore the unidentified station and keep running. John KK9A So there I was, enjoying
Must be like the fake "Maritime" (20M phone) net that let's mariners THINK they have a link to civilization but in fact the net is so inept they kill people ! Rick - WU6W That was a WINLINK operative
I thought that JT65 operation was around .076. That's where I hear most of the activity. I notice that most op's steer clear of the area between .070 and 080. 73 Tom W7WHY It happened to me too. This
Re steering clear of 070-080: are those dial frequencies, or actual transmit frequencies? On my K3 when operating FSK, my dial frequency reads 1.955-2.125 kc above my diddles. Thus, if I operate RTTY
Are you using AFSK? In RTTY the K3 dial should show the MARK RF frequency. Space will be 170 Hz lower. Actual RF Frequency based on xx.070 to xx.077 "dial" frequencies in USB. One will find PSKxx be
FSK, although I meant to write "below". I wonder if I have a setting set oddly somewhere, then. That, or when I conducted an experiment with someone to test dial versus transmit frequencies, we both
