I think the title of this string should be changed. Most of the comments have really no idea of the difference between
NTSD running "Classic Winlink" in the auto control subbands and Winlink 2000.   I operate within the auto control subbands
in automatic mode connecting to other NTSD stations.... Although no one "owns" a frequency, I would not operate outside of these subbands
and possibly interfere with another QSO in a another digital mode..... you have plenty of space to operate. It would appear that operation of other modes
in the autocontrol subands is deliberately inviting a confrontation.

It is one of the examples people unhappy point to as
an illustration of ARRL arrogance "do as I say, not as
I do".

OTOH, it is kind of silly if not looking for conflict
to start a QSO on a freq one knows has been used to the
benefit of thousands of Hams for 40 years at certain
times of day.

It remains the responsibility of the operators of W1AW
to be certain the freq is clear *prior* to transmitting.

Perhaps an Official Observer should cite them to make
the point that no one is above the law, regs, nor common
courtesy.

Hmmm.  I have sent them a note or two in the past over exactly that.  I or
someone else was using a freq and they fired up.  I let them no in
unequivocal terms, that is not suppose to happen.  They are no different
than anyone else on that matter, and should check every frequency they are
about to fire up, and slightly change if someone else is there.
