[RTTY] 3C0M RTTY Yesterday

[k0bx at arrl.net]

Yesterday afternoon the 3C0M showedup on rtty on 20
meters.  Very good signal.  This was the first time he
has been on rtty later in the evening.

He seems to have fixed the moving transmit freq and
also his report micro has the station he is working
callsign in it so that helped quite a bit.

There were a few frequency cops on.  Most of the cops
just said up up up but a few (maybe one) used some bad
language.  but for the most part the split pileup went
pretty good.

There were times when the 3C0M took his time to come
back to someone.  I only can guess his receiver was
getting overloaded. 

When he finally called me, I had one of the frequency
cops yell 'dupe dupe dupe'.   It think he got my
callsign confused with K0XB or N9BX.  Hi Hi but the
3C0M acknowledge me anyway.  I have 320 confirmed on
rtty now and the 3C0M and ZL8R where two new ones!

Here is the spots that may have cause the DUPE DUPE:

Good luck to everyone and hope you work him.
