>These days, most of the signals will be zero-beat with a packet-spot
frequency. Going slightly off frequency often nabs the QSO.
I call them 'cluster clickers'. (Maybe 'bandmap baddies'?)
A couple of years ago, N0AX came up with a Q signal to indicate to
callers that they were all on the same frequency, and that they should
spread out a bit. I've forgotten what t it was. I have been using "QRM",
but nobody gets it.
To K6STI's original point, I have proven to myself that a db or so is
much louder than you'd think.
