[CQ-Contest] RTTY down low in the band

[KI9A at aol.com]

OK, this will start a fire..
 
Last Sunday, during the Illinois QSO Party, I was at 7030 +/-, Sunday,  about 
2200z.  I had 6 JARTS RTTY guys fire up, dead center on me. 
 
Two things here. 1) Why do the rtty guys find it necessary to go so far low  
in the band?? This wasn't CQWW RTTY.
 
2) What happened to common courtesy? OK, I understand sometimes cw guys  fire 
up high in the band. But, that's kinda rare.  
 
The cool thing about the PRO 3 is the ability to decode rtty on the screen.  
I did. And, there are 4 SA stations, one W, and on carrib that won't be 
getting  any QSO's from me in the future. A loud 5C5 was one of them. They were 20 
over  at times, I know I had a decent signal also...they heard me. They stayed 
dead on  my run freq. No class at all.
 
Flame suit one..
