That's one reason I used to operate only very late at night, or early in
the mornings.  We had a local group back in the 90's that would meet on
3890 at midnight on the weekends.  Only 4 of us at most, and we could talk
sometimes until 3 or 4 in the morning.  We did have some occasional
visitors that we all knew, and that was fine.  If any of us detected that
others were having trouble hearing us, we would sign off so not to burden
the others.  It was only the polite thing to do.
