Yes, finding it on your own, especially before anyone else does, gives 
you a distinct advantage over your rivals, assuming you weren't tuning 
around at the expense of a better operating strategy.  After working it, 
spot it.  Your rivals will all rush to the spot, leaving you to tune 
around on a quieter band, looking for the next new multiplier, while 
they all waste valuable time QRMing each other in the ensuing pileup.

Seems like a win-win to me!
