I don't see the point of you mentioning it then. >>>You brought it up, Demetre. You said you didn't understand. I simply offered an explanation. Again this is an old horse already beaten to death many times, but you keep coming back at it over and over. >>>I will stop debunking fallacious arguments when they cease to be made. Any interference caused in Winlink2000's semi-automatic operations is not the PMBO's fault but the initiator's fault who is responsible for any QRM because he has to listen for a while before he transmits, and he should also keep listening when in session with the PMBO. >>>Since the initiator is typically remote from the PMBO, the initiator cannot reliably determine that PMBO will not QRM an ongoing QSO. You could activate a PMBO in England on a frequency that sounds clear in Greece, and yet the PMBO's transmissions will QRM a station in Iceland that you cannot hear in Greece. The PMBO control operator cannot depend on you a remote initiator to ensure that his or her station never QRMs an ongoing QSO unless you have real-time access to the PMBO's receiver -- which you don't. 73, Dave, AA6YQ
