Oh, I'm sorry. If somebody intentionally and maliciously interferes with my
ongoing QSOs on what had been an open frequency - 3+ Kc away from the "usual"
SSTV frequency - am I supposed to say "Thank you for jamming me and violating
Part 97 of the Commission's regulations. Your operational technique is stellar
and I will gladly accede to your illegal attempt to prohibit me from making
QSOs."
Since when does compromise become compatible with jamming (i.e., legally
prohibited activities). I must have missed that section of Part 97.
And frankly, I have no desire to attract frequency cops, egomaniacs, and
jammers into contesting. They can stay put where they are. Thank you very
much.

Is this guy trying to be the new poster boy for everything that is wrong with
contesting. If so he is succeeding. At what point does respect enter into
contesting. The DX Window has been around a long, long, time. There is a reason
for the DX Window. Waving around part 97, and threatening guys like NN3W did,
does not help the image of the contesting community. Somewhere along the road
the word compromise needs to work its way into the conversation.
There are probably 10 guys who don't contest to everyone who does. We are
outnumbered. We need to try to improve our image, not bully those other guys
around. I don't participate in SSB contests anymore because it's not worth all
the hassles. Now the same nasty rhetoric is entering in our community on our
mailing list.
There were recently several 'threads' about attracting new, and or casual,
contesters. As long as there guys like NN3W & K9GX, and others, we might worry
about keeping what we have before we try to expand.
p.s. (Before you send me flames wait a few hours and see if its still
useful/important to flame me)

I sent KB5PKW this message last night:
Please advise as to where a "DX window" is referenced in part 97 C.F.R.
If you're unclear as to what part 97 C.F.R is go to the FCC website,
www.fcc.gov for clarification.
Guess what, no answer.
I enjoy DXing too but when I ask whether a frequency is in use and nobody
answers I'm going to use that frequency.
This clown is too busy playing band cop to be a DXer.............
