I agree 100%; different protocol for two different species. I have ears and not
a USB port! My PC does.

So what's the protocol when a CW man checks a frequency, hears nothing, sends a
couple of QRL? and hears nothing and begins to run stations. Then sometime
later a guy running an imaginary mode...oops...sorry, FT8 shows up and wants to
park on the CW man's frequency? Who is to blame? I'll answer my own question:
the FT8 guy who is QRMing an occupied frequency.
Besides the FT8 guys can always resort to JTAlert to QSO via text messaging as
one west African station apparently tried to do with me.
