[CQ-Contest] A dive into busting world

[Luc Moreira]

I remember trying hard for long 45min to realize who would be the guy on
40m during my first WPX in early 1990s, when I was just starting to master
CW. I believed It was BV6U, and I was very astonished to heard
a Chinese station 59+40db that time (just afternoon) on 40m.

Then I called PY8JA (one of my CW teacher) and put the phone near the
radio... Then he said: "that is 6V6U", a very active guy at time, but I
didn't know that as a newbie...

So, I guess RBN is just a newbie trying hard to realize who is that guy...
We need to teach him who is who on this beautiful game.

PS. I should send my log as ASSISTED because that little help, but I didn't
cos was just wetting my feet on contesting and I wasn't aware about
non-assisted and assisted issues...

73, Luc

> Below is all the variations of 6V7V and the % of times it was busted

> Skimmer of someone busted 6V7V into 5U7V. All of a sudden a pileup builds
> on 6V7V side from 17:56 until 18:09 with all the Assisted stations jumping
> to the new mult without listening.
> The poor fellows at 6V7V awake to a stream of dupes, and the Assisted guys
> to a Busted call with the correspondent penaly 1+3 QSOs when log checking
