Just lighten up, dont forget that this is an hobby.
Yes I made a misstake. Was tired and tought I had
the radio in split.
First I didn´t understand what you meant, that´s why
the odd comment, however 2 - 3 minutes after your
comment my brain clicked (old and slow!)
Beleive it or not I´m just another fellow human being.
Anyway, thanks everyone for the Q´s in WW CW. Did work
single band 20m from the CN2R super station, hope the
score atleast will let me win CN8.
73 Jim SM2EKM now home again - even more tired!
PS: "grab him and shake some sense into him" I love this
comment!

Oh my gosh...just when you think you've heard it all ;-(
On 40m CW tonight, for a moment I thought my RX was jumping all over the
place. CN2KM would work one or two people and then be on a different
frequency. I called real low once & he apparently came back but I didn't
hear him because he had "moved" again. So I started listening "around"
again, and there he was calling me. By that time I had already changed TX
frequency. Several re-attempts resulted in him not hearing me and moving
on down the line.
If he tuned across the pile and picked a new station, then his XMIT
frequency changed ;-(
Finally, I got through, QRS'd and said: "You need to fix your RIT/XIT,
OM". He came back and asked what was wrong. I said "You keep
QSYing". His response was: "Just follow me" (or something like
that). One or two others on frequency gave out an "hi".
If this guy keeps the same operating style during a crowded band during the
CQWW, there will be a lot of *unnecessary* confusion.
If anyone knows the op of CN2KM, please grab him and shake some sense into
him (especially if this is a contest operation).
FYI & 73...
