Different, but about the same....
I was listening to the TU5 on SSB last month. He was "listening UP 5 to
10". I was doing what ICOM calls "Dual-Watch", monitoring his calling freq.
& checking for where he was listening on the other VFO... You know the
drill".
Well, "UP TEN" some guy was trying to start a Net. He was telling everyone
if they were not standing by for the net they should QSY, because that was
"an established daily net frequency".
The guys calling TU5PCT could not hear him Screaming at them because they
were listening "ten down".
THEN, The Net guy went down ten Khz and was yelling at the DXpedition
trying to tell him to QUIT TELLING stations to call you on "OUR ESTABLISHED
NET FREQUENCY".
Obviously, The TU5 Op could not hear the net guy yelling, He was listening
"ten up".
No end to my story.......
