Just wanted to thank the HI brothers. I talked to W6OCL and WH6OR tonight. After I did that they wanted to talk to each other...ad we had a very polite conversation about it. This is the sort if thing that impresses me. They were...gentlemen...about it. I was...impresssed. |

lolz I was just calling CQ in the noise and all of a sudden there are two HI operators calling me. I typed in the first call in Xlog and was like  "Are you in HI?" "Yes" "Wow, you are very clear for a train-wrecked band!"
Worked both and then one of them asked "Bruce, would it be OK if I worked XXXXX on your frequency?" "Never been asked that before...absolutely!" QSO "Thanks for letting us borrow your frequency, Bruce...mahalo!" More or less the same from the other guy. I dunno, maybe it is no big deal...it just struck me as imminently polite...the polar opposite of how this would have gone with two average IZ stations. |
