I was thinking today as a matter of fact how intimidated I was when I first got my ticket & tried to get onto 75/80... I had a crappy antenna & 100w max output.
I to felt like I was being ignored.
I tried to get into a QSO with some guys down south & they basically told me to take a hike.
That being said... Because of this experience I have always made it a point to include &/or talk to anyone that breaks into a QSO I happen to be in.
I would never want someone to feel left out as I did @ the time.
Sometimes people get treated like crap on the bands & (Again) I say that I would never treat someone like that.
I took your statement as a dig @ myself & others that share 3.814.
I can guarantee that you were NEVER ignored & most likely just not heard.
It is also tough to get in sometimes simply because we tend to big big mouths & VERY quick on the key...
The group on 3.814 are some of the best guys on the bands. Without question & I will go to bat for (Most) of them.. : )
I apologize if you were made to feel anything but welcomed & I hope you try again.
Now if only Chris KC2RGW would take back his stupid statements about us & actually find out facts before posting absolute non-sense. We could put this behind us & move on..
Thanks for reading..
SIGNED!!! : )
