=============================>
Force is good. It's part of the contest.
Force as a variable function of power. antenna, propagation.
And as far trying to take a frequency where unanswered CQ's are being 
radiated, I don't see that you are interfering with any communications 
that is taking place.
I don't ever recall seeing lane stripes on a racetrack.
Cars, Horses, or Front Row Monkeys.
