A couple of observations; The DQRM with EP6T was by far the worst I have ever heard. My guess is a lot of it was because of angry people who did not like Iran as the DX location. If that is correct, I suspect the next P5 operation will be as bad if this isn't corrected somewhat.
I am always surprised at the amount of geographic DQRM as in EU vs NA crying when the other is being called, on the air bickering is stupidity incarnate. Nobody wins and it only serves as a damper to fun and camaraderie. Zero winners possible with this one. I personally think the JA's are the best behaved group out there at this time. K1N was QRX and some of the QRMers started chatting amongst themselves on the Tx freq & one said something almost verbatim: "OK, everybody, key down at the same time". There came a few bits of DQRM but nothing like a group venture. Still, that is the impetus for much of the DQRM, if others like him had been listening, they would have joined in just because of the gang mentality. Feeding off each other is what they do. I don't think these guys are much part of a group that knows each other, they just work together as individuals with a common goal to cause dismay and anger. If some of them are knocked out by the FCC it will help tremendously but it won't be the gang that passes the message of being caught to fellow members, that warning will have to come from hams in forums and on the air making those court judgments known & who was judged guilty and why. I doubt these misanthropes read the actions of the FCC & the courts court in magazines or on line, I personally doubt they are well read. more of my 2 cents, 73, Gary KA1J --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
