Hi Ron, In your particular situation, I would send them a 73 (tx5) and don't log them. If they ever ask for a confirmation, I reject it. 73, Sam W2JDB -----Original Message----- From: Ron WV4P <[email protected]> To: WSJT software development <[email protected]> Sent: Mon, Dec 2, 2019 8:29 pm Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] Callsign lockout
There are Many reasons to block a caller, they may be a Lid, they may be disrupting a QSO, they may just be Very annoying. As it stands we have No way to deal with them. We need a way. Just last night I had a PA station I had never worked send me RR73 over and over for 30 min.

Case in point wasduring the heyday of packet radio (I call it the Packet Radio Wars).If you did not march to 'their' drum you were locked out of all nodes, BBS'gateways, etc. Such a thing should be banned. If it is there, someonewill use it to push their agenda. That's not in the spirit of amateur radio.

I almost never use "Call 1st" and I find it trivial to operate without it no matter how many callers I get. Even FT8 should be able to handle some degree of operator proficiency. 73, Dave AB7E On 12/2/2019 1:00 PM, Jim Brown wrote: > On 12/2/2019 2:54 AM, Martin Davies G0HDB wrote: >> In summary, I don't see any need whatsoever for any modification of >> the 'Call 1st' capability >> to include any forms of queuing or callsign lockout > > Agreed.
