[WriteLog] KP4VP and WPX

[Felipe J. Hernandez]

Ja,  this thread is funny.. kp4VP is a great guy,  Im sure there was a
good reason
For him not listening well. Noise , skills, Rx problem,, decoder......

Actually this happens quite often..  amateurs not experienced in certain
contests get on the air due to the marketing efforts of the organizers,
they don’t know what is really happenning they just know they want to
get out and hand out the mult to as many stations as possible..
For those who got him I think his time was well spent.
I don’t do RTTY but ill bet that Kp4VP beats me at it.

   I called him for about 10 mins, along with, I think W0ODL??? No
   response to either
   of us, and I could copy all calling, which was about 3. Now when you
   point a WIDE
   spaced 5 element beam at him and he's 30/9, somethings wrong. Not to
   mention the
   W0 was almost S8 to the back.

   The only thing I would accuse him of is not having a receiver.

Maybe a high local noise level?  I got whacked on this on 20M this
time.  It's unfortunate, but saying he's doing it intentionally is a
bit much.
