[ADXA] Clowns, LIDS and idioits

I’m sorry I missed that one—even if a pirate. LOL
 
I tried to work him for an hour and half yesterday evening, and again this morning. He had decent signals, but someone QRMing right on top of him. Also, pretty discouraging seeing all the mean comments on spots for Thierry. He deserves a medal. 
 
But I picked up GM5WS on CW and SSB, and JD1BMH CW on two bands yesterday. 
 
73 es Happy 2023 to all,

As Joel said, it will only get worse as the New Year gets here.  Today, I was seeing FT8WW almost every decode and sometimes all 3 streams.  But those calling on EVEN were so prevalent earlier.  I texted one guy and he said FT8WW was transmitting on ODD and bunches of folks were trying to work him.  I asked him what was his db and he told me it was hovering between -5 and +5.  Then he got to thinking and realized it must be a pirate.  He even saw the notice on the QRZ page about EVEN only, but it didn't soak in the heat of the moment.  
 
Time to take a couple "happy pills" and sit back.  The circus should be fun.  
 
Good Luck everybody and have a very safe New Year.
