[Dx-qsl] Jocularity

[Peter W2IRT]

What would go a very long way to reducing the bedlam would be for CQ
Magazine to exempt P5 from the CQDX Marathon next year. This will kill the
incentive for a lot of name-brand DXers who worked Ed 10 years ago to call
this time.

LID is not the correct term. A LID is an incompetent operator. What you are
describing is a JERK! Like the ones who like to have their private QSO's on
top of the DX Tx freq because either they can't hear them or already worked
them and want to prevent others from working them.

IF the proposed op can be pulled off -- and I hope it can, we shall see -- I
expect an announcement to the effect that due to the limited time allowed,
and that it's a one man op, hams will be asked to make ONE contact.  

And, if they have a previous legitimate P5 confirmation of any kind, to NOT
make any contacts to give someone else who needs the ATNO a chance.

We will then see quite a few ops conveniently not "get the message" and call
on as many bands & modes as they can, work as many as they can, and brag
about it.

There's a word for hams like this.  Quite a few words, actually, but let's
just stick with one for now:  Lid.

Why are we talking multi Q's, multi modes ??? I have 1 QSO.  I'm lucky to
have that...unless he's calling CQ frequently, I won't go after another, and

MANY shud do the same !!!
