[Elecraft] Contest QRM

[KQ8M]

I am always amazed at those that point to a chart and say there are contests every weekend. I only operate the big contests of which
there are 5 a year that affect each mode that I can think of. The rest are small and occupy very little band space if you even
notice them at all. If that really bothers you then I feel sorry for you. It must be tough that things bother you to that extent.

Plus, as Jim says, the WARC bands are contest free zones.

Contests always avoid the WARC bands, and most contests are a single mode -- CW or SSB or RTTY -- leaving lots of space for those
who don't enjoy them.
