Sorry Bonnie, Im with him. My operating priviliges are listed on a chart on my wall here. I dont see any place I cant go within the ham bands. Thats why I worked and earned the Extra license. If I find a clear frequency, ask twice if anyone is using it, and no one shows up, its mine until I get tired. Thats the legal way to look at it. Now if somneone comes up on cw or ssb (or a digital mode I am working) and ASKS me to move because there is a net due up there, I will try to slip the other station up or down a bit, out of the way. If some hogging signal comes up, that I cant read, Im very likely to be there until tomorrow. Thats the nature of this beast. I dont take kindly to drivers cutting me off on the road, or radio operators trying to bulldoze their way onto a frequency. Danny
