News from C21HA III

I want to share my worst experience I ever had during my 40 years of ham 
radio operation.

This morning, between 20-21 UTC we were working with State side on 12 
meters band. 1 kHz below of our QRG someone was also making QSOs in our 
pile-up using and identifying himself with our C21HA call sign. We know 
that there are police stations, we know that tuning on the DX QRG can 
happen, we know that sometime there is interference on the frequency. We 
know that sometime pirate stations are working. We know that there 
are fake spots in the clusters, using invalid own callsign (like HA5DX, 
but we know the IP address). We know that very strong station 
continuously making QRM on our QRG and/or in the pile-up 
window. However, this cheeky, insolent attitude of this morning surpass 
every imagination. No words to classify this person. It is not 
simple annoying. It is fare beyond the rude, impolite behaviour. It will 
make lots of stations disappointed, as they may be changed reports with 
this pirate station. We are sorry about it. Is there anything further 
down? We spent a lots of our money to make other hams happy putting the 
C2, Nauru into their log. Whos (bussiness)interest has been disturbed by 
coming here to this remote Island?

That could help you to indentify the real C21HA: we always working with 
high speed CW, (35 wpm or more) on the higher bands, with 50 wpm rprt 
and TU. It may be helps.
