Contests are indeed a good way to learn how to handle high 
traffic.

Another tool, that many new DXpeditioners forget to use in 
the heat of the moment, is to spread out the pile-up. 
There will always be some somebody smart enought to go up 
(or down) to the edge of the pile-up and call where he is 
clear of QRM.

Nonwithstanding all that, it is a good sing when there is 
so much QRM! The operation is doing something right. 
Better than not hearing the DX at all!

Cheers and 73,

George, AA7JV
