[RTTY] VK0EK RTTY Update

[Jim Lawrence]

Not only RTTY.  CW and SSB pileups are the same.  Some guys just never 
stop calling.  I won't say I have never done it, but, if you heard me do 
it, it was a mistake on my part.  Then there is the blantant DQRM, but, 
that's another story.

I was lucky enough to get both FT4JA and VK0EK on RTTY:-)  Just didn't 
realize how lucky I was:-) until I started reading this thread.

(if it is all newer ops?).....listening to the 4W pileup, trying to find the qsx, and they give a DL6 a 599 and K5 keeps giving his call, they respond to a SP6, and the same K5, over and over and over.....and he’s not the only one....I can understand if one has lite copy, and they come back to a similar call, but there nothing similar about OZ8A and a K5.....eventually, the guy works him, so he thinks the method he is using is correct, but it isnt.....I know Ed has written some articles on the subject, but how do we get them into the right publications, websites so the offenders read them ?
