    You might be a bit disapointed then with POTA, as the majority of the   
   contacts with POTA operators are very contestest like, in that they are out   
   there to make as many contacts as possible within the time of their   
   activation.  At the same time there are a lot of people waiting to make   
   contact with them.  Very rarely will they take the time to "TALK TO YOU"...    
   It is exchange contact information, and off to the next station.  The majority   
   of DX is like that is well.  That is not to say I have not had longer QSO with   
   either, but it is not the norm.
