If I had stuck around on 3581.5, I would've been the one QRM'ing
W1AW, not the other way around.
No Tim, you were the one being interfered with by W1AW - you were on
the frequency when they started operating. That you chose to QSY and
not engage in a frequency fight was the gentlemanly thing to do in
spite of the intentional interference from W1AW.
Nobody owns any frequency and, absent an emergency that presents an
imminent threat to life, nobody has the right to commandeer any
frequency that is "in use".

I made that comment to you in the interest of helping you improve your
arguments against RM-11708. But instead you are just being ridiculous. ARRL
bulletins and code practice are very important to ham radio worldwide, and
it is important that they continue and not be QRM'ed. In fact I would like
to see published RTTY bandplans show a hole carved to allow W1AW's
long-standing bulletin frequencies at least on weekdays/weeknights.
There are good reasons to be aware of ARRL bulletin frequencies and
schedules. This valuable public service, used by hams around the world and
provided by the ARRL, should not have anything to do with arguments against
RM-11708.
