You can tell if they are so2r by writing down the call signs, and
checking 3830 tomorrow to see if they enter the expert category.
There's no faking it because of the BARTG band-change limit for
non-experts.
I have seen a lot of cases where even an so1r operator just does
not respond. They may have terrific local QRN, or have a decode
setting wrong, or perhaps their decode mark/space frequency has
been pulled off nominal.

Jeff WK6I,
You may be right but to me it seemed like he may have been busy
on another band and just had the timer set to continue calling CQ
on the other band. Nobody can be that deaf for that long.

hi Dick - Just wanting to understand... not responding to
anyone sounds more like they may have a receiver problem? I
don't see the connection to SO2R. - jeff wk6i

I will not give the call signs but there are some RTTY
operators that seem to lack the skills to run SO2R. It is very
easy to spot them as they keep calling CQ over and over again
and don't seem to ever listen for the stations. All they do is
create confusion when several are responding to their CQ and
they do not respond to anyone. I used the think telephone call
waiting was rude but poor SO2R operators as just as bad.
