[SixClub] RE: DX portion of the 6M band...

[Jeffrey Guenther]

I'll put my two cents in, even if it doesn't make any sense!  To too often I 
have experienced hams who believe they own a frequency.  Will not move and 
when they have no one to talk to, will block the frequency with harmful 
interference.  Let's not get into reporting them...

I am not an experienced 6 meter enthusiast, but have listened and enjoyed 
the band from time to time.  When it is open it is busy and fun.  Most of 
the time the general calling frequency is being used as the contact 
frequency, which multiple contacts can be made, because everyone checks 
there first.  They rarely move off the frequency if the band is open.  Who 
are we kidding, when we say General Calling frequency??

It is the rare ones who will not yield and move.  Unfortunately,  their the 
ones who take up most of our time.  My question is, if you find yourself 
fighting over a frequency, Why???  Just move on to another frequency.  Even 
if they happens to be the DX window, which only bird brains would have a 
general conversation on anyway.  Arguements on the air only do injustice to 
us all.  Let it go guys...

You never know who is listening one these frequencies?  Interested people 
wanting to become a ham, or maybe a kid.   What does it show them if they 
hear two licensed Hams arguing over a frequency???

My sense of things, which maybe not worth two cents.
