[UK-CONTEST] CC 2007 MM0BQI

[Cooper, Stewart]

This was just one of many dubious operating techniques I noticed this weekend. In IOTA, there's lots of last-two-letter merchants. In this contest you must leave a 20 second gap between unanswered CQ calls!

Yes, Jim and Dave, agree that this is frustrating. They may be well-meaning
and/or they want to get your contact finished quickly so that they can get
in there! Just generalising, but I suspect that this practice is
particularly common amongst Russians. Whoever it is they do not understand
the morality of the situation.
PS: no, I was not in Antigua this weekend!
