[UK-CONTEST] Deliberate QRM in AFS

[Colin]

This subject has been addressed before but I will copy Martins' email to
the Region 1 HF Managers reflector and stir up some discussion on there.

There has been a change of DARC HF Manager since the last time the
subject was raised so it certainly is time for a reminder.   In addition
I am sure John G3WKL the RSGB HF Manager will raise the topic during the
next meeting.   Most of the agenda is devoted to HF contest matters
which is ironic seeing as the Davos Conference decided to dispense with
the Contest Sub-Group!
