It wasn't me, but I do have two macros
NR? {TX} NR JUST UR NR {RX}
AND
CALL? {TX} CALL ? UR CALL ? {RX}
I don't use nor condone profanity nor do I condone impolite transmissions.
I've stayed there through 3 and 4 attempts or more, trying to get the
exchange correct.
This morning on 40 a KA0 using rtty called me to tell me I was on top of
a cw net and was qrming them.
I replied that I heard no cw, and did a QRZ before starting to 'RUN'.
He came back with 'Well the net is there and your qrming them'
My reply... "Ok, I'll move"
and I did
No sweat, no harsh language, no big deal.
How I could NOT hear cw (my main mode) during the time I was making qsos
I do not know.
But life is too short, and contesting is too much fun, to ruin it by
getting into a 'it's my frequency' war.
It's also too much fun to ruin it by getting into harshness over an
exchange.
