We have occasional trouble with a group down in Southern IL and and farther
south who think they own 1880 at night, but they usually wait (with some
complaining) until the AM operators on 1880 clear off.

This kind of inflexibility is ridiculous.  You'll have a group pissing and
moaning but nothing for 20 kc up and down but will they simply QSY and carry
on?  Oh no, they must have their frequency.  I don't understand it.
