Oh, and when you normally        RR> would just not log it so nobody would know. You do because you are        RR> working a contest.. (ASK ME HOW I KNOW...).              I couldn't tell you how many times as a General I pulled off that trick during       a contest, both SSB and digital.               RR> Then there are the hams that will openly talk and teach others how to        RR> transmit out of band on their BaoFangs or CB(HF) modified radios, and        RR> will make it seem like you are the bad person for pointing out it is        RR> illegal.              Stupid is as stupid does.
