[CQ-Contest] The OO Strikes Back

[Lou Mecseri]

Steve, you are right. OOs send out "OFFICIAL OBSERVER ADVISORY NOTICE".
W2CC, must been sitting on S51CK's frequency and copied calls of stations
worked him in the contest. According to David, (S51CK & KE1F, me) was
transmitting on 14349.31, our sideband was out of the band. My logging
program did not know that.

Gee, could someone tell me what is a legal way to inform S51CK that he was
too close to band edge?

: They are ARRL appointed and have no legal authority and therefore not
COPS.
: They do observe and send out friendly notices.

: My question to you was really aboutthe so called intruders.  Who are they
?
: Are they breaking any FCC laws ?  Are you allowing for the fact that some
: bands are shared ?
