or listen to the pile he is working, where is he actually listening?, is he
answering the people on the same freq all the time? or is he drifting up or
down the pile some? see to listen and learn where he is listening and or moving
and make the next expected place be the place you transmit. DUH? running a
vertical and barefoot been doing this since
1975 and 99% of the time I get them first call.
