They’re calling off sequence because they can’t hear the station they’re calling.  That’s a real tip off that they’re idiots. You can’t work’em if you can’t hear ‘em.

1502, 14090, FT8.  Was calling F/H, got a response but never confirmed. 
Left F/H and kept calling.  Finally in the log.  It is incredible how
many US hams are calling in the wrong sequence. Are they brand new to
FT8?  It is maddening.

Good luck everyone.

This was my first contact this trip.  Not an ATNO but new band country. 
Off to feed the neighbor's cats.
