According to the JT65 website, the operating frequency is 14.076.  When I
was being given an on air reprimand for interfering, I was above 14.100.
 So there is no way in heck I was causing any interference that far down.
 So what does the guy do?  He sends me an email with his call sign to
remind me of my interference.  What he doesn't realize is my system is
recording the entire receive window to a text file.  So now we have a
printed document with him causing interference and not identifying his
station.  I have subsequently sent him a reply email to enlighten him. So
if any of you per chance happen to get those on air reprimands from an
unidentified station, here is one call sign that *could* be suspect. KD0RII
