Recently the jammers have been sending apparently real call signs on the DX frequency in order to entice the Kilocycle Kops to send UP UP UP and other vile comments. Their strategy is working perfectly. It's become an unholy mess.

For something like 17m, one way is to have the DX transmit outside the legal USA portion for digital modes.  It might deter some of the ejets.

I hear JA (and one KH6/K9FD typing really slowly -- probably one of these K3 paddle guys) calling on 17m but don't hear the NA NA person you guys talk about.  No propagation to him or to the 7O :-).

Surely someone must live close enough to some of the frequency cops to know who they are?
