Slightly tougher going than the CW leg and as others have already said,
finding a freq to CQ was rather difficult. The SSTV brigade were also
evident up here, though fortunately not on any run frequency we managed to
find. We had enough to contend with with the "tuners"! Heard several
tirades between stations disputing who was on a freq first. Dont think it
helps (whether you are in the right, or not) to start the debate of who was
there first by being abusive to the other station. Surely a bit more tact
would result in some sort of agreement, rather than ending up trying to out
CQ one another?
Lost run freq several times to work new ones lined up on Sub VFO. Too bad,
as others have pointed out! That's the risk you take vacating it, even if
only for 15secs or so.
