[UK-CONTEST] Gonna write me a letter

[QUENTIN COLLIER]

Yes, and these self same guys don't come on when there's a contest on and work 
us.....they know there's a contest on and we're looking for contacts, and they 
won't come on and give us points.....don't they have any consideration for 
others' needs and rights? How selfish can they get? Think I'll write to Radcom 
about it...... 

73,



Quin G3WRR (aka. disgusted of SE25)

You beat me to it!  A similar letter occurred to me while listening on
20/30 last nite - why can't all these people come on the bands when I am
not there?  Why should 100s (if not 1000s) have all this thrill of the
chase and completely disregard my needs?  Do they know who I am?

I pay my subs you know.
