So you're saying that if you're running a frequency with a nice continuous
pileup of DLs, Gs, SPs, IV3s, and HAs, some DL says, "hey, turn your beam a
bit south, there's a 5H3 thats been trying to call you for five minutes,"
you're being forced to recategorize yourself as assisted?
Doesn't this open up the window for sabatoge? If I didn't want somebody to
win a category, I could come up on their frequency, and without their
knowing it start giving out callsigns of stations that he hadnt worked in a
pileup but were calling him.
Does that seem fair?
