Topband: Topband V84SAA and ARRL Contest

[Gary Smith]

Tough tamales with the last shot at their 
SS this morning on 160. Just as their 
brief signal began to appear in CT, a WH6 
contest station started calling CQ test 
200 Hz above and though several sent QSY 
to him, he insisted on staying put & 
finally it became a debacle and I turned 
off the radio. 

I love contests but I always QSY when I 
forget to QRL and start transmitting & 
someone sends QSY. It's beyond me why 
others don't do the same. 

73,
