Op:  Rachel 8 CA Blue

Notes:  

I see that blue is the color of the year.  Seems like red was big 
last year.  Since trying it in the last event, Rachel prefers to CQ.  
We were going fine for about 10 minutes on one frequency when someone 
started saying 'frequency in use'.  We'd listen, nothing on, and start up 
again.  Comment would come again.  I think this was bogus.  My daughter 
kept saying lets just keep calling we were here first.  Don't know where 
she got that,  I am usually one of the first to move even when I know I am 
right since I am usually not into a contest 100% (much less 10%).  We 
eventually moved and never got a good frequency again.
