But what you are referring to Randy, costs them more than what they imagine, by
missing one caller, it very well could be the only mult that can/does/will hear
them - and now because he didn't get an answer, is too busy making Qs to go
back and try them again. In fact, sometimes that call is written down on a scap
pad, to indicate that if heard CQing not to waste time trying him again. Might
be a whole lot more costly than considered.--... ...--Dale - WC7S in Wy> Date:

number of guys calling CQ with no response other than a repeat CQ. I even heard
loud stations call them with no response. Obviously, they were on the other
radio and just never shut off the CQ machine. This is a prime example of how
not to operate SO2R. BTW, I do not operate SO2R because I only have one
antenna, a Butternut vertical.> > Come on guys, if u are gonna walk like a SO2R
