Comments:
Wow! Great conditions on 40 and 80M. 20M had its moments. I hate the end of
contests -- last 3 or 4 hours -- when panic sets in and overzealous ops
thirsting for the last possible QSO bully their way through the bands,
bulldozing other stations trying to make their Q, stealing QSOs as best they
can. Some call that the essence of contesting, but not me. I call it
aggressive bullying on the band. Please wait your turn at a QSO -- knocking
out someone in mid-QSO just because you can is really hurting the whole idea of
'contesting.' This isn't WAR, lighten up a bit. You're probably not in the
running to win anything anyway, so just let it go -- have FUN, unless your idea
of fun is somewhat twisted.
Thanks for the Qs. 73, Vic, W4VIC
