YES! Over a period of several hours, I called a bunch of EU and SA stations 
who were CQing endlessly and well above my noise level. Some were answering 
callers fairly often, but many were not. I simply don't understand how some 
of these guys can be SO STRONG, abiding by the rules for power, and still not 
hear my 1.4 kW signal!
