I had almost an identical incident a year or so ago on 20. Fellow came  
on and told me I was using too much compression. I thanked him and  
turned it down a little. He wasn't finished, and came on again telling  
me I was an a**hole,  (hmm - maybe he actually did know me!) then some  
jamming and recording playback. I told him if he waited his turn, I'd  
work his station. Seemed to make him madder.
