My objective is not win an argument with Demetre or any other proponent of
operating practices that QRM other operators, but rather to illuminate the
flaws and obfuscations in their arguments to the readers of this reflector.

Uh, Demetre........
Wow, you're sure off target with Dave by your comments.
Are you saying, generally, screw the U.S. and gentlemen's
agreements? There's more of you outside the Continental U.S.,
therefore that's where the power lies?
Are you saying, generally, you'll do what you want, when you want,
without regard to efforts to make life bearable on the ham bands
because, as you wrote,
> in 99% of the countries of this world the administrations do not

So say your adminstrations, so say YOU and yours? Thanks for
making this thread all the clearer for me, Demetre.
My heart goes out to Dave. He'll never win this thread's debate.
More's the pity, for us all.
