It was suggested here to "change the subject" and quit this bickering
about SO2R etc. Here I go, "how to handle a pileup"???? There are a
lot of great rtty contesters on here and Id like to get some opinions on
how to handle an rtty pileup. I dont get them often but when I do its
frustrating. I guess when I do get one its because the band condx became
supergood or maybe I got spotted and KH6 is a wanted multiplier.
Anyway, suddenly I get anywhere from 2 to who knows how many callers
responding to my CQ. All right exactly on same frequency, cant copy any
of them. If I do a 'qrz?' or 'agn?', the same ones call with the same
result, cant copy any call or even a portion of a call. What I do is
just keep waiting for the one with the most patience who outlasts the
rest and is finally alone and I go back to him. Im wondering if there
isnt a better way. Any comments???
