I don't know who the "referee" is for this august reflector.....BUT, read
below, puleeeeeez,
by doing the following:
- find every spot where I annotated K9YC's acerbic and uncalled for replies to
SP6EQZ's initial
post by inserting "K9YC replied"
- label K9YC as an "ugly American" and, PULEEEEEZ, put him, FINALLY, on notice
to "clean up his act"
or disappear into the internet ether......
- send a personal e-mail to SP6EQZ and apologize for this exhibited boorish
behavior...PULEEEEZ!!!
How embarrassing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sheesh....
Aside note: I got pissed off enuff at K9YC for his acerbic replies to several
past posts of mine.....and
enjoyed reading several private e-mails from other subscribers regarding his
lack of tact and ability
to submit a "good natured reply," vice the caustic, unfriendly notes he's noted
for. BUT, this latest edition
makes his forays into my "backyard" pale by comparison!!
Run this dood out of town if it keeps up!!

Courtesy of my friend Wlodzimierz Herej SP6EQZ paid a donation of $ 10 for
VK0EK.
K9YC replied: Sounds like you're one of the last of the big spenders!
To this day I have not found confirmation of my QSO on LoTW?.
I sent the payment on April 12, 2016
Is the donation has been sent too late and the previous procedure does not
work, can I do something wrong?.
K9YC replied: Did you not read the VK0EK website? Early LOTW confirmations
would be sent to those who contributed BEFORE the expedition began. Like you, I
waited until I had worked them on the boat on their way to Heard to send them
$300. That's much more than I usually contribute to DX trips, but this was a
VERY expensive one. I sent a check, and got a nice thank you note from KK6EK's
XYL. She said I'll get my LOTW when Bob returns home.
I guess I will have to again make fee to confirm my QSO using the form:
https://shop.vk0ek.org/

VK0EK Shop - VK0EK OQRS page<https://shop.vk0ek.org/>

Bringing this expedition to reality has been a huge effort, extending over 3
years. Besides the 14 men who travelled to Heard Island to operate the radios,
carry out ...
K9YC replied: It would be good for you to again make a contribution, increasing
the size of your support. This was a VERY costly expedition.
Thank you very much for having responded to my call, and especially to 160 m
what gave me 263 entities to 160 DXCC.
The way to say thank you is to send more money. :)
K9YC replied: European hams got 52.5% of VK0EK QSOs, NA got 19.4%. EU got 2,372
Topband Q's, NA got 293 (I got one of them). Many NA hams who DO contribute to
these trips are getting more than a bit tired of hearing EU stations
complaining about DXpeditions not working them but not sending money to support
the costs. Most NA hams are retired, so when we send money it is from our
savings or our pensions. Here's a partial list of the guys who paid for your
QSO.
