[Elecraft] OT: 6M proceedure

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

Absolutely correct!  These old farts, gum beaters and false teeth 
clackers,  are usually running 100 watts or so to outside 
non-directional antennas and are often no more than 20 miles apart.   If 
challenged one will be told that "we were hear first and you should move 
on".   They do not recognize the national calling frequency by 
gentleman's agreement.    Seems like hours and hours of QSO's takes 
place as "members" of the group come in and out during the evenings.

I've often heard stations in the distant calling CQ and I've answered 
them on the calling frequency and asked the distant station to QSY up or 
down 5.  Then I hear about me QRM'm their QSO.    Crap  such as this is 
one reason I stopped contesting on VHF.
