Hi Guys,

Just when I thought I had seen everything, I tuned into the pileup with
ST0RY and ST2CF.  When the DX called for a particular callsign there was
EVERY variation of calls that had NOTHING in common with the call the DX
was trying to work.  What is wrong with these people?  Do they not know
their own callsign?

Unbelievable the animals (U.S. Hams) on 20 meter SSB.  So figured that if
I couldn't beat them I should resort to different tactics.  Went to 15 CW
& worked ST0RY.  Yes, it took serveral calls - Once again proving that CW
RULES!

ps: then after he goes QRT there is much discussion on frequency about
"What was the DX's callsign?"     UNBELIEVABLE
