Stop the presses!

That was put in by someone else!  My posting, if  you read it, said "I go to 
a frequency and send QRL QRL, DE K9MI?

 I will not doing any name calling, but I was told how wrong that was 
shortly after my post showed up. I'm on the QRL? de Call    side of the 
fence!

I wish now I had never brought it up if  someone is going to misquote me. I 
consider this subject now closed and will delete without reading anymore.  I 
thought my operating was in the spirit of ham radio and not just jump on a 
frequency like I've seen a great deal in a phone contest.

I'm leaving this group now because if I said what I think, the moderator 
wouldn't let it through anyway.

Mike, K9MI
